Inside a tuning shop when the EPA comes knocking.
As part of the request, the EPA required PFI Speed to turn over an extensive list of documents. Photos and contact information related to each of the builds and their respective owners, lists of every part installed on said builds, names of distributors and retailers utilized to purchase those parts, as well as lists of parts sold with client information attached were all requested.
The Hondata S300 is a popular plug-in OBD1 ECU for Honda products that features a ton of aftermarket friendly features, like support for forced induction, ethanol sensor capabilities, and CAN output. While designed for off-road applications in Civics, Integras and Preludes from the 1990s and early 2000s, there were popular OBD2 conversions available for this part.
“They came back to me earlier this year with a facility investigation wanting access to all of my tunes,” said Leivestad. “That request also included a more detailed list of some of the other parts we sell, such as FuelTech and Haltech hardware, as well as the necessary details to verify where those parts ended up. I cooperated with that once again and turned over all my stuff. I’m in a pattern right now of waiting to see what they say.
“Since the letter came through the mail, we literally turn away any vehicle that we have to plug into with an OBD2 port,” Leivestad told. “We don’t take anything street car related, not even if you just want us to read it. Everything must be towed into the shop and towed out. Everything is on dedicated ECUs, and we’re not doing one single thing outside that.”
