I bought my shelby back in September knowing little to nothing about it, the dealership said it was completely stock, I knew that wasnt true based off the K&N CAI and the wheels from a 2007 shelby, but I wasnt sure what else was done to it, as im looking into it a lot more and wanting to mod the car, I see it has an aftermarket pulley, looks like the 2.6” with 90mm metco pulley combo, but im not 100% sure… having seen that I was kind of confused as to why it had a pulley and still passed smog when the dealership sold it to me, smogged of course. Its my understanding you need a tune to run a smaller pulley, could the dealership have dirty smogged? Or is it not tuned and running a small pulley? Either way, I want to get tuned by Lund ive been looking into it, if anyone can help me figure out if the pulley is actually a 2.6” or a 3” aftermarket lookalike much appreciated!
It is a bit dirty from bad belt slip I had, or have, im not too sure what’s going on there either, checked all pulleys and they seem good, replaced the belt and that was fine but it still chirps on a cold morning not as bad as it used to tho… California Member here!

Looks like the same setup as mine. 2.6” pulley and metco aux idler. You’d have to measure the pulley to be 100% sure. I don’t know about CA smog but here in NV you can still pass tuned as long as all monitors are set and no CEL’s present. In my mind, as long as the cats are still present you should pass. Unless they do a visual and actually know what they’re looking at. The car is most certainly tuned, I can’t imagine it would be running right with those mods on the stock tune.

Yeah I dont think itd be running right without a tune either but in california I believe any performance enhancing tune is illegal, the computer will flag your car for it, which is why im so confused as to if it has a tune or not, would you mind measuring your pulley from the outside and seeing where it lands on a tape measure ill double check mine and compare it to yours to see if it is a smaller pulley

This looks like belt dust from belt slip:
