Default ECS Does It Again!!!!!!!!!!!!

This month my car was due to be inspected so I threw my front plate on and went to a State DMV inspection station and felt in my bones the car was going to fail being it was it's first inspection.

With everything I have in the car as well as not having in the car I passed with flying colors which shocked me to say the least. I don't know anyone that works for the state so this was all on the up and up.

Besides that I've put 7K on the clock and the car hasn't even had a hickup with anything that ECS did.

What can I say but kudos to ECS again for building me such a great ride!

It's pretty sweet when you can make over 700 rwhp and still pass the sniffer. Congrats.

Steve has one of my mods and the others I was sworn not to say as I have a few one off things in the car. If I told you I'd have to kill you before they killed me!

Cool! I just picked up my ride from ECS for a TTix and forged 346 and other goodies and was very impressed with the work!

Glad to hear they passed you JJ. I had mine in two years ago and passed after the ECS mods. I am now due again, hope all goes well or I will be calling Chris and Doug for some help

I just hate letting the bone heads sit-in and drive the car. I always seem to get some fat guy who can't get the seat back far enough at the Deptford, NJ station. And then they herd you like cattle to the end of the line so you can't stand and watch what they do... What can you say, we live in New Germany
