Hey guys i recently had a single turbo conversion done on my fd and have just been doing day permits on nice days but now that its getting close to grad i need my fd insured and i need aircare it has never passed in canada and have a pfc and single turbo isnt gonna help...any sugestion i thought about bribing the guy but to be honest im scared of getting in **** lol so please if anyone has a sugestion tell me lets get this car on the road! No car should stay locked up in a garage (my parents dont want me to insure it somwhere else)

 

Aircare, you're in BC right? register it on the island until next year when your province scraps emissions testing. Still not 100%, but way more legit than trying to bribe a guy you don't know.

 

I live in agassiz hope is 15 mins away with no aircare but the thing is i can get fucked with insurance if
Somthing happens to the car

Uh single turbos can pass.. Get it tuned, many threads on how to pass. Do it illegally and risk a **** ton of trouble? I dont know how bad they ar for testing, but it cant be impossible.
Get it tuned
Run highflow cat
If it fails, post your test on pfc board and im sure someone will help.
There are so many threads on passibg etest its not even funny.

 

Not impossie but the shop that did my car said it depends the driver there on if it will pass they can tune it and stuff but if they drive it to hard to make up for the lack of torque jt will fail and if they shift to early it will fail anyways so if it passes first try i will have 500 into getting jt aircared...the most it cost them to do a fd was 2000 i dont have that kind of money to dump into aircaring my car...if i knew it would pass first ide jump on the 500 but its a slim chance it will...this is why im looking for other options

 

I still stand by what i said. Do it right and pay now or do it wrong and pay later. Have you been tuned on your setup, or running someone elses tune. Are you sure absolutely everything is working flawlessly?
the shop.that did your car didnt tune it??
Hard to understand exactly but if the same.shop did your conversion, will charge you up to 2000 to have it pass on their own aircare machine?? I dont understand what you mean and how bc works for aircare, but it sounds like you havent been tuned and that the shop is.charging 500-2000 to tune it??
If you wanna do it the cheap and probably wrong way, you mine as well just empty your tank and run a high ratio of mythel hydrate. You still may not pass , and could blow your engine, but i have a feeling that you wanna do it cheap and probably already are overlooking important things that will cause you to blow your engine anyways.
Do it right, get a hihh flow cat, give a great tuneup and have a professional tune it.
Datalog your etest, post results.
Whats it cost to just have a test and see how far your off??

 

Keep in mind i know a little about tuning, but i know that you need a good one or results could be more costly then a tune and dyno time.

 

Well considering it only has 2 hour son a tune and i baby the car she only runs 6psi im not a idiot that will blow it..im just looking for a cheap way to cheat aircare becasue it can be very costly...

 

Oy about 2 hrs of driving time so far

 

2 hours doesnt mean anything if its just a new turbo setup and not full rebuild?
I understand what you WANT to do, but what im saying is you should WANT to listen to advise given. My thoughts are listed above.
Its your car, do what you want with it, i just dont know if anyone will give you any different advice.

 

Im saying it is tuned after u asked if it was lol im saying it was just tuned but the shop has a hard time getting fds with power fcs to pass aircare becasue of the aircare place they do the car and drive it to the aircare place..they are a good shop it would only be 500 but if it takes 7 trys which is the most it took on 1 car they did thats 2000

 

FD tuned with a PFC can run a lot cleaner than stock...

 

Which shop is doing your work? On another note, what I did to get through was make a few large exhaust leaks, put the cat in, run the car hard right before aircare to get the cat nice and hot and then just took the test and passed with flying colours. Granted this is an FB and a Turbo 2 but I'm just sharing my experience.
