Tuning and CA emissions

I’m planning to replace the intake/TB and install a CAI. Obviously to get your moneys worth it involves a tune. After it’s tuned, will that fail CA emissions because of the tune? Will I need the base tune reinstalled when I put the factory air box back in to go through emissions? Trying to get a little extra HP and not make my life hell when it comes time to get it smogged.

I’m not so much worried about the warranty, more about the struggle to smog it later on. The swapping a few parts won’t be hard, but the tuning aspect I really don’t know the details, and don’t want to end up in a tough spot.

There will be no emissions problems with a simple tune... provided the tuner does not turn off any checks or tests...
