forscan and smog checks

[joez3]

I know on the new cars when you get a smog check they can tell if you have a tune installed and fail your car (if the tune is not approved). If you turn features on/off using forscan can that cause you to fail a smog check? I know that most people are using forscan to set things like when light come on/off. But on a Bronco they have these GOAT modes (some of them adjust throttle response, shift points, and other things, its like a different tune). On a Bronco forum some people want to add GOAT modes that didn't come with the Bronco they brought. If they do this will they end up failing smog?
I am asking this here because the Broncos are so new I don't think any of them had to get smog check yet.

Sooner or later you (or someone that brought the car) will need to get a smog check.

Forscan has nothing to do with smogging, all Forscan can do is turn features off and on that are already built into the software.
