Here are the facts per Brendan and Steve at FRPP:
1. The TracKey is supposed to be 50 state emissions legal but FRPP had to wait until they had a true "production" Boss to send to CA for a CARB EO number and approval.
2. As per Steve at FRPP even if the tune does not pass CARB it still will be released as "49 state" legal.
3. FRPP stated the tune is really closer than late summer...could be as soon as late April early May but they want to underpromise
4. They apologized and are just as frustrated as we are about being able to release the TracKey ASAP
5. They want to be able to release the tune across the country at one time which is why they are waiting on CA
BTW...a little birdy(not from Ford) told me the tune is already on every Boss, it just needs to be activated...and this could be done by an aftermarket tuner if they figure it out!!!

The CARB official I talked to three years ago while trying to get a supercharger for an '08 Mustang was actually pretty understanding and helpful. Hopefully this won't take too long.
