This took a long time, but my car finally passed emissions!!!!!!!!!!! :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:
congrats man!!! i remember at the Greater atl christian school meet last year when i still had my blue wrx and it wouldnt pass
as long as your ecu doesnt show any codes then you will pass, i dont know of any 4-wheel dyno rollers for emissions in GA.
Thanks guys, and gal! The problem I was having was my TGV deletes. Found out recently that aps now sells their TGV deletes with the CEL fix. Great job that does me now! :grr: When I bought the car it had all the mods on it, including the TGV deletes. How was able to fix the CEL? ECUTEK* + the TGV sensors & actuators(sp?)**. I was still throwing a CEL with EcuTek alone. So i got the TGV sensors & pluged them into the TGV wiring plugs. Now no CEL. But wait, I still threw a CEL wed night. Reset ECU. No CEL for about 3 hours. Not sure if the cool evening air was setting it off? Woke up today, reset ECU. No CEL! Did not turn my car off, I immediately started driving to reset the drive cycle while praying constantly! After driving long enought to reset the drive cycle I drove straight to the emmisions station. Ok, now the CEL is gonna come on. But noooooo, it didn't!!! I passed!! *I have read somewhere recently that Protuner can override TGV delete CEL's. Not sure if this is correct, but for anyone out there it's worth it to do some research. **Reason why I needed the TGV sensors and actuators... I would still throw a CEL at full throttle without them. Thanks to Scott @ SoG!! And SlowWRX for the TGV Sensors!! BTW... My CEL has not come on today once!
This is what I need to know. Last year I had a cel, and head to put my stock exhaust on to get it to pass. This year, I didn't have a cel because of EM, but the ECU was still try to get a reading from the rear o2 sensor. It cant because I have it pulled out of the exhaust stream so I dont burn it up. So, as of now I have my stock DP and midpipe on, and am going to have to drive around for 100 miles to make sure that the ecu has time to learn and it wont throw another cel. I have to have it done and have my tag no later than monday, so I hope all goes well. If anyone else has any suggestions, let me know.
that would be the best thing to do. i would be doing that if i wasn't moving to charleston, sc. no emissions testing!
