Just a couple weeks ago my Audi passed the bi-annual smog test. It has a APR 1+, tt225 injectors and black FMIC, and the tech didn't say anything. It ran very clean, as usual. Technically the FMIC is CARB legal, but some techs may question it.
Cool, thanks for the info on the APR 1+ CA smog info.

ESlineAyFo,

You should be fine.

You should change your Timing Belt/Water pump before you do anything else. Audi reduced the replacement interval from 105k to 75k, because many premature failures.

Tiptronics do just fine with Stage 1+, as many here will attest.
