Why make us read between the lines? You should have eliminated any confusion for those of us that don't have a crystal ball by stating the year make and model of the car that failed the smog inspection right from the start. Just a thought.<br /><br />You then go on and say "so i have bassani midlenth headers, bassani x pipe with cats, and slp ...." what "you have" is not important, what is important is what has been done to the vehicle.<br /><br />So what causes high Nox emissions? Too much timing advance, high engine temps, lean mixtures, defective EGR and more. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
