Blue Velvet & the emissions test

Hi All,
I am running "Blue Velvet" TCW3 in my gas regularly now. Question is, when I take my emission test can I run the TCW3 during the test or how many tanks should I run untreated gas before I take the test?

You can run it with or without. No need to worry about clearing out TCW3.

^^^^^^^ You're the MAN! You seem to know more about this stuff than I think anyone else does. You are the reason I tried this stuff. The car runs so smoothly now.

+1 - I'm glad to learn about about it also.

I've noticed the VQ30DEs running smoother with the VH45DE using a little less fuel for the same workload.

I plan to jump on the TCW3 bandwagon on my next fill-up.
