That setup won't pass MA readiness emissions with that tune, I saw the thread I remember talking to you when I was over at Kaizen.

You are going to need some type of engine software or the Akra Delete-R device to trick the ECU.

Akra delete won't help. You still need to pass the readiness portion of the test. You have to have your car undergo an OBD based scan before an inspection sticker will even be generated. Also, I believe you VIN is encoded into the OBD data port info, so you couldn't even run the OBD scan on a different car.

Someone is coming out with software to generate a readiness code, but I forgot who. This is the only thing that would work in conjunction with the CEL delete.

Honestly...just not worth all the hassle IMO.
