Exhaust readings Options

[Rusty]

Found my recent dyno run that had the exhaust gas readings. Now here in New Zealand we don't have emission testing on our yearly vehicle testing, so I wanted to see if I could match up with people who get emission tested, see if its a similar result.

Yea, don't know if anybody in the US bothers with the tailpipe readings. For cars 96 and newer, the emissions aren't even checked during inspection - inspector only hooks up to OBD2 port to read the car computer reported readiness monitors. For pre-96 cars, inspections stations are supposed to check emissions, but it's certainly nothing more than idle readings, certainly not at speed on a dyno.

Interesting info to have nonetheless.

Hmm interesting.

From memory, the guy was pretty impressed with my results
