Default Response from CT DMV Emissions

The maximum limits when originally tested in Sept 2000:

HC: 484
CO: 5.09
NO: 3182

Note the CO has been reduced to 4.0, I have requested an explanation as to the reason.

EXACT COPY OF E-MAIL SENT TO ME:

Thank you for writing to the State of Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles

The DMV is always working to improve customer service. We hope that this process will give you the service you need and answer the questions you have.

Composite vehicles are required to be tested every two years until the vehicle is twenty five years old.
The test for a composite vehicle is a two speed idle with the cut points for HC @ 800 PPMs and CO @ 4.0 percent.
If your test date happens be when the vehicle is off the road, , and you can show proof ( ETC suspension of liability insurance or storage bills) the DMV will give a 6 month extension. This extension only delays any late fees and reg issues the test dates remain the same every two years and the only way to change the date is go in more than 90 days before your test due date.
Please call me if you have any further questions.
