Passed CA smog :-)))) [tech details]



Well Mars passed CA smog and is good for another 2 years. (big sigh of
relief!!!!!)

It wasn't easy.
I went to 3 smog stations and 2 of them failed me on the visual  without
even starting the test
1st guy failed me because of my intake manifold not being stock, he knew
right away that it was a VW Fox manifold....doh!
2nd guy failed me because of my BMS header. I tried to point out that it has
an O2 sensor and a Cat but no dice.
3rd guy hadn't a clue and ran Mars on the machine. :-)))))))

Here is the kicker, she passed VERY clean.....suprised the guy running the
test.
