My car passed smog!!!! Woo hoo!!!

[MBANSX]

it has been a long hard journey but it is finally over. I bought my car a few months ago (yea, that's right - FEW!). Anyways, after changing the spark plugs, oil, air filter, did value adjustment, and replaced the cats, the car finally passed smog. I'm so happy right now that i think i'm going to cry. :smile: hahaha

Here's the result:
..............CO2.....O2.........HC.........CO........NO (PPM)
15mph.....14.4.....0..........11...........0............4
25mph.....14.3.....0..........7.............0...........3

Thank you to everyone who had helped me through this!

Time to install some CARB legal headers to celebrate!

Get any headers. There's no way that they'll check or know how to. And the header will have no effect on the smog at all as long as the CATs stay in place.

Anyway, I picked up the OEM headers/exhaust from Vance (his 2003) and they gave ~15whp.

will smog tests be affected if I install headers and random tech high flo cats w/ my ARC DTS exhaust? I passed fine w/ just OEM headers and cats w/ my current exhaust. thx
