Default Funny...just got emissions test done..required in Northern Virginia...

The tech test AMULETT twice...and then again and I was watching and asked what was up? He responded he thought emissions tester was broken since he was getting out of the ordinary low readings. Test again and same result..did a diagnostic on machine and proved OK... he then asked if the engine had any mods on it...oh Yes! Well, he said whoever did the ECU (which is MTM) did a great job in making a cleaner running car. So...even with chip and thus more output you can get cleaner running car and I do even get better gas mileage (about 1 mpg more but hey it's a least a gain)... cool..

Default Same deal with me last year here in TX

Very low readings on my car the last time I was tested (something like 60% lower CO readings than 'expected' - APR chip). I have since put in a K&N filter and added a Neuspeed pipe. My next test is next month so I'll compare the readouts to see how these mods changed things.
