Dual calibration storage - upload from one of two calibrations stored in the FlashPro What is a CARB FlashPro? A CARB FlashPro is a FlashPro which only allows uploads from calibrations which are determined to not alter the any emissions related parameters in the ECU. What does CARB stand for? Not carburetor.  'CARB' is the common term for the California Air Resources Board, who are responsible for determining if calibrations could affect emissions. Why should I use the CARB FlashPro? Within the USA you must use the CARB FlashPro for any emissions controlled vehicle. But I don't live in California / my state does not do emissions tests. It does not matter - the concept of '49 state legal' is not longer valid.  Under the federal Clean Air Act administered by the EPA it is not legal to change any emissions equipment (including the ECU) on any emissions controlled vehicle.  There is no mechanism to prove to the EPA that an ECU modification does not affect emissions, but the EPA will accept the California Air Resources Board approval. Hence California legal modifications are also federally legal.
