Why not go with something that you can earn a living with that isn't so much trouble? You already know you can't fool the OBDII ECMs since they have so many controls. And you already know you can't sell something "honestly" that will screw up the emissions. And you know that if you sell something that has the potential for screwing up the emissions, you'll have to "prove" that it doesn't. And THEN, after all that time and money spent, you're going to have to restrict the profit. Sounds like a heck of a lot of work for a "mere" $100k profit a year. You could resell tchotchkes from China for significantly less effort and make significantly more profit without having to look over your shoulder (or out your window) to see if the suppressors are after you. And selling the tchotchkes is something you can start doing ... heck, tomorrow... not years and years down the road (and $1000's and $1000's down the drain).

AND just what is/are Tchotchkes??Can't you spell what you putting me down with?

Seems like there are much easier ways to "making a good living" than fighting a system that (as you've well described) is rigged to ensure your failure.
And again any business that involves BUYING something and them trying to SELL it is not easy.

There are hundreds perhaps thousands try to sell stuff they bought from companies that say it is so easy to do so on eBay. These are sucker bait deals. Like stuffing mailers and building Cuckoo Clocks.

The first thing I learned is FIND a NEED that you personally have the skills and the tools to FILL.

As John Wayne used to say in a couple of his films, "A man has to know his limitations."

I know some of mine and of the world and what I can do.

This is something I might be able to do.

From my sort run with Dutchman I KNOW there is a demand.

I just need to figure out how to fill it.
