well it sounds like they at lease TESTED you.... TO break in a new engine you are supposed to set the idle at 1500, and they wont test you if you idle above 1100. So now I gotta put miles on my car driving it around the block.

My question was.....how are these for emissions results? It passed fine, but I wanted to compare to what everybody else's readings are. My motor has approx. 15k miles on it.

Your readings are pretty DAMN GOOD....haven't seen readings like those for a while....i've been doing emission tests for like almost a year and a half now and these are pretty much one of the best emission results i've seen except for those unused brand new high end cars that people occasionally bring by....good job!

Pshh...thats nothing. What are those .01 numbers I see? You got to aim for perfection This is a scan of my FCs emissions test. This was with 120k miles, header and only 1 high-flow cat.

But you see where it says air inj system, EGR, and Evaporative Control. I have none of that. And the whole point of an EGR is to reburn the gases to have less emissions. Try and get those numbers without your EGR working, muahaha.

BTW, both of those scans are from the same garage.
