I have a 96 Saleen with a blower along with other
misc parts, the only thing they are failing me on
at this time is my "SCT" big air meter. Any tips
on passing smog with this or any cool "test only"
smog shops in the roseville or sac area?

If the purpose of a wing is to apply down force to the drive wheels at high speeds, shouldn't the wing on most imports be mounted on the hood?

visual only, The smog tech said my car is running
so clean that I could probably pass with no cats.

Spot Check here in loomis, on taylor and horseshoe bar, take the horseshoe bar exit and turn right past Raleys, watch out for the PCS sub station on the left GO 25MPH! its at the end right next to Subway

he just looks at the timing and if you don't pass his "darn machine always has problems" and you get a retest when its working again [Wink]

Stangers,
If you know of Stang friendly Smog shops then lets keep them on the down low. Send "PM's" out to your fellow Stangers... It's doesn’t seem like a good idea to advertise to "the man" when a shop is easy on the visual... I’m sure the shops would appreciate the business and not getting stung.
