Got home late and didn't have time to scan the sheet last night. It was a test only smog check in Ontario... they did test it at 15mph and at 25mph. 180ls1- I have Magnaflow Car Sound cats.

As far as the fog light... I did get to it and it was a PITA! I didn't fully take out the lamp because I was having issues pulling it out, but I did get the melted half out that was stuck in there then noticed that it melted part of the lamp enough so another bulb won't stay in place. I'm hoping it was a bad bulb and not some electrical problem. So now I need a new fog lamp. Going to go to carquest today hopefully they have a replacement part.... unless anyone knows where I can go pick one up?

yes there's two styles of smog tests.

Two Speed Idle(TSI): not tested on a dyno...just in park, first @ 2500rpm for 30 sec. and then at idle for approx the same time.

Accelaration Simulation Mode(ASM): ran on a Dyno @ 15mph for approx 25 sec and then @ 25mph for aprox 20 sec.

The ASM test is run in areas that dont meet the federal or state air quality standards for Ozone and Carbon Monoxide...Counties or zip codes that fall into this category are known as an "enhanced area". Does that dont are in a "basic area".

Good luck with that. Unless you're one of those hot Puerto Rican brawds that also sports a ****, you're fucked.

The motto of this thread is: girl with smog-illegal parts can pass the visual and sniffer, man with smog-illegal parts grabs his ankles.
