just about to ask the same thing al -
Well id be tipping if it was blown it would be blowing some serious smoke and i would be safe to say if that was the case yea they wouldn't be to happy.....

All good sorted on the turbo cheers, yea i know what you mean i also would be more than happy to pay for the test if i knew i was going to pass the problem is you don't know until you go there and let them run all the tests.... Would be super handy if we knew someone who worked for an emissions lab and could help us work out what will and wont pass... One thing to remember is a brand new fresh cat will always be handy
-
ok to pass his test basically the car needs to be stock... As the only thing that can pass is something that has come out of the factory of course with small modifications like 1 air induction mod... In regards to the test u can basically get away with going to Toyota or one private company who does full emission tests.... He didnt say what will and wont pass but if u do happen to fail the test remember to get it retested u are required to pay another ($1300 - $3000)... Good luck if you go down the path of the test let me know i would be very interested as to how you get along and if you passed.

hahaha hey i dont think i have meet you but seen u post that before
-
Mate u can trust RE Customs Ray is a top guy and will help you out as much as he can.... You have decided to take the car to the right place.... Good luck with your repairs.

Yea he did mate, He connected his computer up to the connector under the bonnet and checked it was a stock ecu... Which i was luck i had connected

As per another thread i had posted : I got the letter in the mail from when i was defected back in nov.... They were cool very nice and for a change helpful the informative as to what was wrong with the car and how I could go about having each thing fixed, after all the shit i went through with vic roads I was impressed. I have until the 20th of March the guy was super nice and gave me an extra week to have it all clear in which time i can drive the car around without any worries. After that Ii can only go to and from place of repair and then high chance of rego getting suspended as per a normal defect... In regards to what do they look for id prob saying everything the guy who did the check on the car is a qualified mechanic not a wanker who knows nothing about cars.. So he took one look at my turbo and goes lol that isn’t a stocki is it which was cool... He was cool about my plenum he said end of the day its not going to make all that much of a difference... I would look at the whole situation as to how you approach the place, if you go pissed off because you have to be there and look like a wanker they will treat you as one and have no respect for you... If you are polite and ask questions to the problems with each thing they pick for your own information more too why are you doing this and this in regards to is it just to piss you off you will find them extremely helpful. EPA are not like vic roads or the police they have a purpose and a law to follow and unlike my original thought before I went the just follow that and go from there… I was even given a modifying a vehicle hand book to help is what I can and cant do which I think most of us all know about He also informed me of having a test done on the car which is a complete emissions test and although it's expensive ($1300 - $3000) It is possible to pass with an aftermarket ecu, bigger turbo and a few other goodies which we all like to run all we have to do is get it right.... Happy to answer any other questions people have in regards to all this, of course none of it is law as I’m not an epa officer but I can advise as to what I have been told and the encounter I had.
