I do not see this working in the real world, and the author did say he heard about it on Facebook. So that's a giant red flag right there. Facebook is the same place where it was postulated that pedophile, cannibal lizard people run the western world out of a pizzeria in DC.
Checking PCM calibrations via a checksum would be an extremely challenging undertaking, as calibrations are continuously evolving for any given vehicle for several years. Maintaining a database of all iterations for just a single vehicle for a single year for a single OEM would be daunting, if not impossible. Not gonna happen.

It gets worse. Performance parts for tuned vehicles are/will be blocked for sale to residents of CA unless the vehicle is pre 1966 or for "off road" use only.
Perfect example. Edelbrock moved to Mississippi after all these years. The claim it was because of Space X hiring too many machinists and utilizing there employee pool. I am sure the EPA had a lot to do with that decision as well.
They moved it to the Comp Cams property whom they own.Edelbrock was sold to a parent company that is based in Mississippi. Makes total sense to move some of the jobs (shared functions) there to "headquarters". Foundries still exist and function in Cali. For how long remains to be seen. From things I've read Edelbrock hasn't shipped ANY aluminum products in months.
