Exactly the moddo that basically all of the local shops I have ever seen go by. The ******* shop that he went to failed him purely based off of a visual inspection. Everything in the emission slip passed aside for the visual bs. That's the first local shop I've ever seen fail someone purely based off of a visual inspection. Hence it being called EMISSIONS testing and not inspection. Viceversa should have just kicked him square in the ***** and went to a different shop.
When I first moved here I had to get a visual inspection in order to get registered here. They put the car on a lift and looked for my cat. Didn't say anything about the open dump or maybe didn't notice

Maybe they do visuals on vehicles coming in to register from another state? That funny they didn't see (or care about) your open dump though! I've personally never had a visual inspection on any of my vehicles since CT canned inspections many years ago. OBD2 vehicles just basically get scanned for codes, checked for readiness monitors and ran briefly. OBD1 vehicles get ran on a dyno for 10 minutes under different loads and get a sniffer test. My car is 100% 3" straight piped and never had an issues passing emissions. ****, none of the cars I've tuned that are even out of state have ever had issues passing emissions. I still think viceversa kinda got fed a big **** stick.

whos that faggy looking guy playing on the left? oh wait..
haha nah really man song is real good! Video looks well done! Lead singers voice just sounds whiney to me. Jon Bon Jovi like....
Rest of it sounds point on. With a different lead vocal I could definitely listen to that song on repeat.

hahaha that's actually the second time somebody said he sounds like Bon Jovi... strange... but hey, I guess it's not bad to sound like someone famous?
I'm really happy with how it came out... filmed it all in one day.

Unfortunately though, while I was doing the turbo swap I had to do THIS as well after only 6,000 miles on it. Freakin piece of **** tob!!
THEN some weird guy came over and I had to do it all over again to his car, plus a new clutch!! All while mine still wasn't even finished!! Thank god my shop is big enough.. lol

So far the best 60-100 pull on E35 I logged was 3.69 seconds with only my 3rd tune revision. I popped that pull into my virtual dyno and came up with this bad boy..
Granted I do think that the torque numbers are a tad high, but the hp numbers seem pretty on par with another member on here that I helped with his e47 tuned zfr who made 444whp.
So far so good, but now I'm just worried about something you unfortunately know all too well at this point.... the dreaded 3rd gear failure! lol

There are a few of us that really wanna dyno, but there needs to be enough people to justify the price....
