Default so i failed emissons today

well CT hasnt had emissions testing for the past like 4 years or whatever. and today i went to register my hatch. turns out that all cars from 2000 or so and under have to have the emissions tested. so i went to do that and failed horribly. the CO limit is 1.07 and mine was 12.9. the ------- indian retard over heated my car. he was trying to get an rpm signal and hooked it up to my battery for some reason. ------- idiot. he stalled it 3 times tryin to get it on the rollers and then 2 more times while it was on it. then he sat there at 3k in second gear for 5minutes and overheated it. he was like"your leaking coolant. i was like no ---- idiot." but i got my car registered now so i can drive. we are gonna finish tunning the boost maps on friday and ill have pics up then too
plus pics of the new porsche....c4s baby

If it is anything like the west coast cali/vegas you are a gross polluter and have to see a state ref to register/drive the car. Not good.

Jordan I know a place that can get your car through emissions. I consult there a lot. www.jandmmotorsports.com

They have an emission machine for the state but Mike could lean it way out on the dyno first. Just a thought.

damn Jordan that sucks. so what they tell you, do you have to spend a certain amount of money on the car to get it legalized?
