This is probably a dumb question, but our cars are just OBD right?
J/w because i was checking my oil level and i was reading the sticker with the plug gap/engine idle and so on, but much to my surprise i saw it had OBDII certified printed on it....can anyone help?

All cars built and sold in the US after 1996 are required to be OBD II.

This also means that all tibs are OBD II.

it will sit nicely right next to the flux capacitor. wink1.gif

you can be boosted and still remain emmisions friendly. infact, that is the goal of 80% of people who do boost.

OBD = On Board Diagnostics.

You are thinking BETA II, those started in 03 for the Tiburon, 01 for the Elantra.

OBD II, there are tons of websites with this info on it, it's been around since before the Tibs.
