I dont' understand. Nitrogen should be a bypass product in combustion. If you pass everything, Nitrogren should pass as well. hmm...
Let me do some seach.. Are you sure is not Nitrogen Oxide ?
Meanwhile, what happen or can you bring to some place else to do emission test ?(I am new to Atlanta)

retard your timing or replace your o2 sensor and cat

thanks bro. that sucks i was hoping it wouldnt have to come to that. georgia law is if your car cant pass you cant title it or renew your registration(stupid ass law). well im gonna see if i can get a cat on the low. but what i have now is a Motoria straight pipe with an ultra high flow bolt on cat made by same company. ill have to figure a way around that

I don't have experience in emission part, but retart timing will cause more emission in Nox, and VOC. CO might raise as well because the "combustion time" is shorter due to retarn timing.

track down a stock exhaust system.
restrictive exhausts help for emissions...
also, turn your boost off for the test.
more power more air used...
more air... more emissions levels....
they rev the engine to 3k rpm and read the exhaust levels i think...
idk

you sure can title it.
but you cant register it without a passing test.

you did buy a high flow cat. cause thats whats on my car now and i think its the reason i cant pass. Damn clean air laws
you sure can title it.
but you cant register it without a passing test.
ohhhhhhhh:thinking: i wondered about that. well any of you guys know where i can get emissions done. _______________ <--table

emissions is actually a county law. i know, because bartow county doesnt even have any emissions inspection tests, or test sites. my car would have failed miserably. so another alternative is to move to cartersville.

Well i failed also...But that was because my CAT was shot to hell. When i faild my test score for NO PPM was 1500 our cars are allowed 945 so i failed horribly....Then after that i go put my new cat on and i passed with a 43. So a cat makes a big big difference in that reading for Nitrogen trust me. theres a big range between 43 and 945. So if i were you i would try the CAT first.
P.S also i my car feels brand new almost. Lol. Revs quicker. And does hestiate anymore...So yeah my CAT was from Hell. lol.

I could possiby let you borrow my converter if I haven't put it on my car yet.
Turn the boost way down, try a new converter... I'm pretty sure NOx will be over due to a bad converter and/or EGR, and we know it's not the latter ;)
How far over were you? 2x? 3x? My ka was 3x b/c of the backwards cat (dumbasses).
By the way, my Supra wants your wheels!!!

h-mart time.
noodle soup
i finally figured out what h-mart was. i used to always see you guys talking about it on here, and i finally figured it out.
i was at rusans with my vietnamese friend thao and 4 other asian girls and i ordered edamame. one of the girls told me i could buy edamame at h-mart and make my own and that it was really cheap. i was like, "holy crap, please tell me what h-mart is." now i know. and now i want to go there.
