nah of course not. how could a change in charge temperature, density and oxygen composition possibly change the vehicle emmisions? :)

The change in temperature and density will be measured by the air mass meter(s), and the ECU will use this signal to set injector pulse. If everything's working well it should not affect emissions much, if at all.

Change in oxygen composition? Do you mean change the oxygen content of air? By what process could that occur??

For the original poster - take it to a tuner and ask for an emissions legal tune ;-) You will need to do different things depending on which exhaust gases are too high, so get an emissions check from the RTA to give you a baseline starting point.

indeed. change anything and you can expect the emissions to get worse - do you think nissan's engineers are idiots?

Not at all. I suspect they have built the system to be emissions legal at many different intake temps.

I made the assumption that a bigger intercooler would be analogous to a lower ambient temperature. I may well be full of crap as i have no first hand experience, but the reasoning behind "change anything and you can expect the emissions to get worse" seems pretty weak. Care to elaborate on why? Is it because the intercooler changes the oxygen composition ;-)

I guarantee adding an intercooler 4 or 5 times the size of the o.e.m component will change the emissions from the factory recorded specs.

Stating otherwise is just showing your ignorance of the facts :D

Cheers :happy:

if this is true how come, to get a intercooler enginered there's no need to do a emissions test?you think if it changed emissions to much engineers would have to get them passed by the rta??????

    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
    • I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.
    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
