And inferior ideas.
In earlier vehicles, we tuned the crap out of everything. Now everyone expects the computer to do it.
I have removed the smog equipment (except the cat) on my vehicle and tuned the crap out of it. It passes smog with lower emissions after the changes I made.
My hot rod, with a small block 350, gets better gas mileage, and runs cleaner, with all the racing equipment on it. It's all about efficiency!!
My smog guy would just shake his head when he saw the difference.
EGR...🤦♂️ Stupid idea!
I could rant about this for a long while.😁

A lot of fuel is wasted cleaning the emissions, it does seem counter intuitive to waste fuel to get clean exhaust emissions rather that chase efficiency, but efficient engines are slow to accelerate, and the industry seems to be obsessed with it.

Is that 0 miles to 5 miles under testing conditions or on the road with traffic?
