Default Tried to pass emissions

so had i another thread about the possibility of passing emissions with my longtube headers and others are passing but today when i went it said "OBD not ready" and all the tests were incomplete.

the car was tuned the first week of august. is there a different way it shouldve been tuned for those tests to just display a "pass" or am i pretty much SOL?

The OBD monitors may not have been set properly=lost battery power recently or just cleared codes etc. OR the tune has the monitors disabled.

Mine did same thing. Tuner set codes wrong.... Might want to call them and verify how the codes are set. Im no tuner but, I believe they set mine to off and dont report. I believe its suppose to be set at OFF and REPORT.. Maybe someone can correct me

Also have you done a descent amount of driving the vehicle? Car has to go thru a series of driving cycles for all tests to complete

Or take it to Straightline!

And pass with flying colors, I DID!

Passed with tfs heads, vrx5 cam, lt's, NO CATS and Fast 90/90.
The eyes of the guy ducting the test were crying because of the overlap!

so i talked to my tuner and he just had everything disabled it was a miss communication about the emissions equipment since he is located where they dont have testing. originally i had the SES enabler disabled for emissions stuff and set to no MIL.

he changed it to SES enabled but the test conditions set to do not report error. all the emissions tests went straight to complete except for the oxygen sensor heater test. im assuming since i had thee car turned off and it was a 40 degree day that that was the problem there i still havent been back to the test site since im in school but should that oxygen sensor heater test complete itself?

Shoot. I forgot what the drive cycles are supossed to be before the test is ready but just go drive the car for 50 miles or so. Thats what I put on my car before I went a couple months ago and it was ready.
