Well I'm not really prepared but I'm dropping my car off this afternoon for etest, not sure how bad the damage is going to be with what i've got done to it, and the catalytic moved onto the MBRP.
- I ran the car relatively hard today on the highway into work
- My appointment is at 3 so i'm going to get the temps up before I drop it off and it goes into the dyno.
- Anything else I should do?
One thing when I was leaving there was another focus on the dyno, but I notice that the dyno ramps would not clear the bottom of my car since its lowered. Does that mean that they need to to a curbside test like they do on the 4wd or AWD cars?
Guess i'll find out when I get there.. :ph34r:

I had mine etested in the fall, and my 2000 passed with no problem. I've also got a new exhaust and intake so basic mods don't seem to have an affect on whether you pass or fail.
