The Air In Chattanooga, Tennessee Sucks. Emissions Start In April And I Don't Want To Park My Car. Can Anyone Pass The Pipe Test With A Turbo?

How's he going to put his stock Ypipe back on if he's got a turbo? Unless he has some weird turbo piping setup that uses an aftermarket ypipe as its shape.

as long as he has stock length cat back he can just bolt his stock y and cat up with no problem

if he has custom catback then i dont know

i believe if you have all your emissions components on (EGR, cat - in good shape) and no crazy cams you should be ok.

Well I don't know this particular guy's setup but on most if you remove the Ypipe that feeds exhaust to the turbo, you have to remove the turbo, which means undoing all the fittings, bringing it back to stock tune, etc. Seems like alot of work. Basically he would have to uninstall his turbo kit.

good point i forgot the turbo was not mounted to anything else

the car might pass emitions with the turbo and everythinjg installed as long as there is a cat

Depends on your emissions test, but I was able to pass
(with highflow cat and no muffler)

You'll want to make sure your idle and cruising tune is good.

the exact specs of the test haven't been released but I am planning on a hi flow cat. Its time for the test pipe to go. I just renewed, so there is a year to get it right.

my dad has this trick, it got his old chevy astro to pass emisions, dump in a munch of ethanol into your gas tank, you can buy it at a local hardware store, o and run your car on the highway right before at around 80mph for like 15 min and your gaurenteed to pass, this thing would smoke like no other, and it passed,

and just incase you go to a hardware store and dont find any ethanol its also called denatured alcohol and it will be with the paint thinners. i used this trick in my 92 f150 to pass i used 1 gallon of the denatured alcohol to about 5 gallons of premeium
