Default Cobra Emissions Testing: New CT System

With the new CT emissions testing now in operation, it would be helpful if everyone in CT with a Cobra, GT 40, etc or any type of replica/kit car could share their experiences. my test date is not until next summer.

Some of the items, please add your thoughts, that could be mentioned are:

* Pass or Fail
* Engine, SB or BB and est HP
* Fuel Injection or Carb
* Set up, mild, medium or radical
* Compression ratio
* Tested on rollers or static
* Comment on the expertise of the garage
* Test standards for HC, CO, and NO
* Registered as a Composite or ?
Note: I plan to have with me my original emissions test report in case the test standards
have changed with the new system.

I have requested the test standards, but have not received a reply. On the 2000 test, the 351W passed very easily when using the Composite standards.

The 2000 test standards, maximum limit, used for my Cobra were:

HC: 484.0 Tested @ 99.4
CO: 5.09 " @ 1.99
NO: 3182.0 " @ 189.3

Thanks........this will help all of us......, especially if we experience any challenges ( smile )
