The problem with that is that the dyno has a scale built into it and at
the end of the day when the shop downloads their data to the state, the
weight is sent along with it, along with the; year, make, model, VIN,
etc..

If they are testing a 2000lb Rabbit and the equivalent of 3000lbs is
transmitted, they could get a visit from the state and be fined.

If it was a Geo or something, you would be ok...

They aren't going to make a fuzz over a couple of hundred pounds.

Their database probably goes by the GVW, so your max load is probably the
variance.

'83 GTI passed the stringent PA enhanced emmision test with close to 200K
miles
'79 16V Scirocco will be exempt if I ever get it done 8^)
