KrisM Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Dads Supra passed the MOT today emissions were rediculous but not a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 emissions were rediculous but not a problem TT or NA? The emissions should be that bad if running right, when the oxygen sensors last renewed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrisM Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 TT with no cat, just a restrictor ring i believe. I'm thinking there might be a vacuum leak as boost feels high, this would have an effect on fueling?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Nice to see you're hanging about and keeping the Supra, Kris. Hope the wee man wasn't too cold on Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 (edited) Sorry Kris I didn't click it was you when I first posted. Good to see the old girl passed, friendly MOT guy huh? Do you know what the emission result was? Some Supras pass the emissions test with no cats, although it's a bit marginal. Did the car have a good run out before it was tested?

Swampy442 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Good to see youre running the Supra I dont see any reason why a modern car cant pass emissions, hell I had a Soarer with no cats and a smoking turbo only get half way up the scale lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrisM Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 Thanks guys, I do intend on keeping it. Think my old man would have wanted me too. I have driven it a fair amount in the past but have much to learn yet I hit 5% at idle. Think max is 3.5%. Will need to investigate. I do have a AEM wideband that i can plumb in.... this should help me i would think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
