Plenty of gains to be had while tuning around Emissions. Trans tuning alone is worth quite a bit. I can drop 3 tenths off stock A10 ZL1 with just trans tuning.

The other day I decided to license my 2017 Acadia AT 3.6 because I was tired of that stupid ass "flair torque management" they use on the A6 FWD transmission. It basically makes the 2-3 feel like a big slip shift. So I got rid of all that shit and cleaned up the shift points. Wouldn't be surprised if it picked up a decent amount.

Now on the engine side...not a lot to be gained unless you do mods other then a flex fuel tune.

Moral of the story is yes we can still make power with emissions equipment in place. It's not the end of the world. I could put GESI gen 2 back on my car and make it pass most states other then Commiefornia. No plans to ever step foot in that state anyway.
