I have a 1999 b16a2 in my 1992 Si Hatch.

The motor is converted to OBD1 specs.

2 years ago I went to the CA smog referee. That went ok, but they are sooo picky. I had to return three times. That's another story in itself.

Well Smog came up again and the Smog Ref told me I didn't have go back because I replaced the stock motor with similar motor. Stock motor 1.6L Vtec engine. Replaced with 1.6L Vtec engine. I was sceptical, but that's what he told me. So I didn't return to the CA Ref. I just headed to a smog station.

Smog Station #1 - I had them do a visiual inspection first to get their reaction to the dual cam motor. They didn't even notice. lol. But their machine broke. So off to the next station.

Smog Station #2 - I did the same, they didn't notice the dual cam motor. So I said cool, lets test it. After they ran my registration into the DMV computer it came up
"test only"
So I was like, "WTF!"
I guess it a random pick. So at this time I thought I was screwed. Well we said fvck it, lets see what he says.

Test Only Station - we get there and the dudes kind of a *****. He didn't want to be very sociable. I told him I needed a smog. So he starts.
Pulls my car up on the dyno, pop's the hood. That's when I knew it was all good after he checked out the motor. He didn't say a damn thing.
Good, it passed visual. Now will it pass the sniffer, because at the smog ref two years ago it BARLY passed. But two years ago I have a GSR ECU. This time I had a P30 Del Sol ECU. So I thought the fuel/timing curves would be accurate to the motor. That's why the car barly passed before.
Well it barly passed again, I guess that 1992 Stock Cat is going bad, lol...

Too bad it's coming off tonight and getting replaced with a test pipe.

True, but that's the chance we take in California with modified Imports.

But the turbo can come off in 30 mins. So no big deal. . .
