I have to get a smog test from the CA state referee because I got cited.

I have a streetport, will I pass? Everything else is stock now.

 

probably not... just make sure you "pretest" if you can... dont want to be labeled a gross polluter.

also depends on how aggressive that street port is...

 

I just barely passed with a HF cat, the stock pre-cat, and a mild street port.

I had to put the pre-cat back on to pass. I bet you can pass if you have both the stock main cat and pre cat.

Should be interesting ... I'm going to have to visit the smog guy with my Pineapple "small" street port eventually.

Let us know how you do ...

Hate to expose the rubber in our cars to alcohol, but have you thought about this trick? I.E. alcohol in the gas.

 

ummmm why does everyone frown about emissions..... i know that where i live you can pass the nice emissions tester a 50 and he will run that minivan in front of you twice..... and give ya the sticker.

 

It isn't that easy in CA.

will any healthy running rotary actually pass song? doesn't healthy and smog sound odd ijn the same sentence?

 

if you'e got both cats on, it should pass.

 

I have an all stock healthy FD with around 10,000 miles on the engine and I passed easily in IL.

 

*Thanks whatever lucky stars are out there that florida doesnt do emissions tests anymore*

 

I'm in CA and had to mix 2g of denatured alcohol into 5g of 91 octane to get it to pass, failed the first time. This is with both cats and a med streetport.

 

when you are forced to go see a CA state referee, those people are said to be un-bribable. I'm not sure whether or not they really are though.

 

hummm

maybe you can put like 5 cats on, so the emissions are almost none!

i wonder if that is possible......

 

Alcohol in the tank works magic.

 

Does anybody know the ratio of alcohol to gas? And is it the same denatured alcohol you can purchase at most hardware stores? I have failed emissions twice but I think I have to change my egr 'cuse it keeps throwing me a code everyime I drive it in hot weather.

 

Just run the tank down near the red, pour 4 cans of dry gas (just alcohol) in it, have em run the test, then fill the tank.

 

Can't you guys in CA weld two main cats together just for the sake of pasing smog? once you're done then you put your HFC or MP back on.

The main cat is much easier to pull...seems like it would be a pain to pull off the precat each time you have to go test.

 

ahh this makes me enjoy no emissions even more
