Default E-Checked the Ruby today...

We had some discussion at the Vegas Triathlon on how clean burning our cars are.

This morning I started the car and drove 1/4 mile to the other side of the base for testing. I let the car idle until the fan's came on. Test was with a probe up it's tail-pipe (sts) and a connecter to monitor rpm’s. Test was ran at 2500rpm and at idle. No dyno...

Here are the results

2500rpm: HC ppm 1 (limit 220), CO% 0.00 (limit 1.20), C02 20.00 O2 0.7
Idle rpm: HC ppm 9 (limit 220), CO% 0.01 (limit 1.20), CO2 19.80 O2 0.7

Passed with flying colors...

BTW - I stayed with the same plate theme

91 ZR ONE (OH) and now 93 ZR ONE (NV)

Cheers,
RH

Clean as a whistle! My 415 runs a tad dirtier. 220 ppm HC at idle! 24 ppm at 2500 rpm though, hard to keep the cats hot at idle with so much fuel being unburned. Before Haibeck tuned it, it had 3000 ppm HC at idle!

We have emissions testing every two years and last time with all my modes I was in the lowest 10% on both categories.
