1991 CRX SI --- No bar sticker yet ...but

I brought hydrcarbons down from 800 with two new o2 sensors and a 50 dollar carsound cat off ebay.

Technically I would of passed without the cat, but the tech wanted to see the numbers lower.

I also had a distributor go out during my attempts to smog, so I dont know if the bad dizzy was messing anything up or not..

Here are the final numbers if anyone is interested..
HC (PPM) idle = 60 Allowed = 120...I was like 115 before the cat
HC (PPM) 2500 RPM = 45 Allowed = 140...Nice to see it go down here..

CO (idle)=.02 allowed 1.0
CO (2500rpm) = .13 allowed 1.0

I think I still have some issues because my idle was 878 and my timing was a lil advanced at 18 degrees... Its always something with this bitch now thats shes Hybrid...

Next will be obd1 conversion, and built bottom end

 

So technically it's not a legal motor yet right?

 

U shouldnt have passed period at a smog station here in CA with an obd-0 B16. It should have been one of those "here are my papers and $200, when do i come back?"

 

Aww dude really? Should I turn myself in?

The fine is a hefty one for a smog shop to do what they did, so i was just surprised they actually tested the car. But yea, please proceed to your local authorities.

 

Whatever dude youre stressing. I have plans to go legal, just not enough money right now to support my plans. Dont worry....Im not polluting the earth while Im working my *** off to support my family and have fun with my crx.

Legal or not it sure is one hell of fun car to drive...

time wasted----10 min

Haha.

 

haha...

im'd you again

 

Only if smog were that easy all over CA.

 

i still don't see the point of having all the fancy smog crap on a motor in cali.. if the damn thing passes the pipe test and there is no major problems with it.. just pass the damn thing.

 

i had to go to the dark side with my smog but i needed it done its my only car

Totally agree.. This car is running really low emissions and is not ok in cali, yet a 74 v8 running on 6 of those 8 cyl using 3 quarts a week is ok in cali????


I know its a lost argument...politics / money / regulate

Help me Arnold!!!
