Xede/FM hardware/emissions
 
i've read alot on here, actually taking it all at once and have a headache
but i can say i understand turbo terminology a little better, and how shit works
tuning however i have no clue.

my goal is to make 200-210whp, preferably FM kit no electronics, Run an Xede with 550cc or 440cc injectors all whilst passing emissions.
basically can this be done???

i still don't get the whole CARB EO thing, as i see rotrex offers you some sticker so idk...
any info in laymans terms would greatly help.
:noob: sorry

Calvin, you don't get any help until you remove the homo image in your sig.

scandmx5 12-17-2009 03:48 PM

ahhh how is it homo you asshat? lazybones made it just fo me!

Ben 12-17-2009 03:53 PM

Improved. Yes, it was totally homo.

Yes it can be done.

You don't need a CARB EO, since you don't live in Kalifornia.

Absolutely. Done many times in several different states. I can even make an MSM pass with larger injectors. You will have to run a different "inspection" map though. But you will not have to remove the Xede or larger injectors.

Does not apply to you in GA.
