Default Anybody smog their LS/vtec setup?

Was wondering if any of you LS/vtec owners out there in motor land have ever had to get you motor smog? Will it smog? I have the problem of having to get mine smog. For some reason I'm guessing no. Well, let me know. And if it is no does anybody know of a place in SoCal that will take a payoff?

Do the ref's really know what much about cars/Hondas to know that?

Granted a Honda geek could figure it out... but it basically looks like a stock motor.

Try this, go to a pep boys or whatever, and get something thats called emissions pass, you pour this into your tank and suppose to run it for about 15-40 miles than go get your smog check, it should pass, i had a ls vtec and it didnt pass than i got that stuff for under 10 bucks and passed, good luck.

I would think that stuff would be illegal for some reason. Another question, what vehicles must pass smog?

My Accord is OBD0, does it have to?

Good luck passing.

My LSVTEC passed Texas' new smog test on the dyno with only three hundred miles, and it passed with ease.

You got a website for that pass smog in a can stuff? I'm interested to see what chemicals are in it.
