If your tune is meant for catless of HFC you should get no increased emissions warning triggering a cel - however, i dont see why a cel caused for other reasons would not appear as that is plain unsafe for the engine should something else go wrong.

2) You will likely need a handheld tool to tell you if the car doesnt display the error straight up = it could be a host of things.

3) no
thanks for your reply. but, what if you got the tune specific for HFC and CEL still comes up?
