Thumbs down VT Stage 2 Cams & Emissions
It appears that the VT Stage II cams will NOT pass emissions here in Ontario.

anyone else on here have these cams and have passed or failed an emissions test?

Hydrocarbons.....150 limit. 1050 reading That was the idle test. It passes barely on the driving test.

No guarantees the tune will change anything according to Steeda.ca and VT

A buddy of mine just did the cams last month too..doesnt have it on the road yet but needs a e-test before he can get it on the road this year...he's not going to be happy

Steve msg me if you figure a way out, he's going to need some help on this.

steve is gonna bring the car back in and I am going to write him a program that will be more e-test friendly but the overlap in the cam will cause the HC to spike as they have. There is only so much that can be done for tuning without writing a crappy tune just to pass emissions

That's what I was wondering, if you could do a special tune to pass the test, then change it back for regular driving.

cheers

A re-tune is an option but it's just not feasible.

I might have to settle for a conditional pass.
