Passing the visual isn't a big problem. Don't offer the EO papers unless the guy asks. Passing the sniffer is slightly harder. Running as little timing as you can is the trick. 7 degrees base is the minimum allowed. You can run even less timing with a chip. Less than 20 total drops NOx and HC on all Mustangs. Retarded timing makes the exhaust gas extremely hot which burns everything up. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
