CT Emmissions testing for composites is slightly different than for normal cars. When using the CT composite ID, the system will recognize as a composite and use the current "last date applicable" ie 1978 specs for testing purposes. When you get your letter, you go to the test station and will have to do an ASM test (Dyne). If the vehicle fits comfortably, off you go. If not, you will get a 2 stage test at idle and at a held 2500 rpm. I understand that if it is close, you can come back for a retest. If it is way off, you can request a one time waiver for 2 years without the $660 fee as the composites have no factory emissions system. This last part is up for question as the policy was fluid when I checked in October, but came from the DMV Emmissions dept head.

Good luck
