well i am trying to get my e30 registered ...
and i need to pass emissions ..
.
i have taken it twice .. once with a 153 ecu that had a chip and now a 173 ecu that is stock ...
my co2 level is ok through out ... but my hydrocarbon count is 700ish!!! at idle with the 173 ecu .. and was at 900 ish with the 153 ecu with a chip at idle ..
at idle it is failing ... but it passes at cruising speed ... .. what a bummer
.... i took it to a local specialty shop to try and get them to do some dignostics and tinker a bit .. so i they can give me a waiver
they gave me the car back and said they cant do anything with it
so now im stuck .........
im going to continue to drive the car around to let the ecu settle in ... but i need a shop that will do some work at least so i can get a waiver ...
anyone know of a place that can help a bro out ... i just want a waiver so i can get it registered ............... ill keep it on the DL ... 8)
im just looking to pay to get a waiver and get it registered
------------------------
i would continue to tinker .. but i start classes again on monday and cant afford trading school time for car time
