The MOT was overdue for the supra, so braught it to a local MOT station. I vowed after last year i would'nt go back there as they failed me last year over a little bracket that was on the bottem of the windscreen that holds my snooper. I mean How jobs worthey is that!

 

But as i was desparate so i took it back. The car failed on emissions test. I asked the bloke was it much over, and he said just slightly over.

 

Is there anyway i can get the Emissions down without a tune up, Like change to v power rather then tesco 99? . Ive got a jap tt with Blitz nur spec and 1 cat removed.

I have an MOT test station where I work, try and get as much heat into the Cat as possible so the cat is 'lit'. Take a hard drive before hand or get the tester to hold the revs of the car before the emmissions test to give you the best chance of passing.

All cars have to have an emission test of a type.. pre 93 cars limits are a lot higher..no cat @ co 3.5% max..cars from 93 to 96 have an emission test but not full cat test..96 on have a full cat test as well..hc lower than 200ppm and co under 1.2% .. I will have a look at the paperwork tomorrow..
