Make friends. Do things for them. LOL. I'm serious. That sounds like it's going to be tough.



Do you have the smog pump on there?

 

[zZsKyZz]

Put a bottle of that "Gaurenteed to pass emissions" stuff in your tank...

And if you fail, you can always sue for false advertisement.

My car has no issues passing cali smog test but for my peace of mind i put in half a bottle of rubbing alcohol with a quarter tank all my buddys have had great success passing california smog test using this method

 

[Chythar]

The main trouble you may have is the visual inspection. If the person doing the test thinks you modified the engine "too much", they may refuse to run the test. I had a guy give me crap on my last test for a Pro-M MAF and a throttle body spacer. Of course, he proved his stupidity by totally missing the Kirban FPR.....

Good luck, let us know how it goes.

i had the same problem as about with my 91 gt...they said they wanted to see all the certificates for all the parts saying they were 50 state legal....but i live in new jersey, the suck a$$ state of them all....although i have heard cali is pretty bad for that as well.

I didnt see if you have the smog equiptment or not? How bout cats? if you have all of it and it functions properly, you will have no problems passing. Your in long beach so your close to me if for any reason the smog place you take it too gives you much hassle shoot me a p.m. and i'll send ya to my smog place. They are familiar with carb numbers and modifications, they wont give you a problem.

 

[MysticKeith50]

I wouldn't bet on that.

 

[badstang123]

If the car is tuned right the emissions part should be no problem. Last time I went I failed visual miserably though. MAF, FPR, throttle body..etc. Just depends on how much of a dick the guy wants to be. If it is a normal smog you might be okay. If it's a "smog only" one, you might be screwed.

Sweet thanks bro. Ya I have all the stock smog stuff except the cats. I have the magnaflow high flow cats.

Good luck man. I have to take my combo in around oct to get my smog done at a test only station. I passed easily with my H/C/I set up. I have a ton of carb numbers under my hood so that helps too. I always use my STOCK H-PIPE and have all my smog equipment attached. As long as it looks stockish you might be ok. On the rollers i was so far under it was barely registering on the charts in some areas. I did fail for my FPR but i switched it and passed with flying colors.

 

[AznStanger3v]

even though you are rocking cats, those high flow ones might not fly in cali. i live in VA, and some of these guys are failing with those bad boys.

Yea that is why i was for sure going to go O/R when i got my midpipe. There is not much of a point because most shops know there should be four. Also they dont clean nearly as well as the stock four cat set up. So i went O/R for normal driving and i go back to my stocker for smog.

No smog check here

Did you put those numbers with your stock H pipe. I have to go into smog in two weeks!! I hope i can do as well.

 

[Therian]

I think we should compile a section for the FAQ sticky that lists different members' combos and what they did to pass emissions given those combos
