Title: Decrease CO for MOT? Post by: mushtafa on March 17, 2015, 12:54:07 PM Not sure if this needs moving to the noob area or not?
Anyway, 1.8t, AUQ, few mods, good MAP. CAT has been removed, so CO is too high to pass MOT emission test. What can I change to lower it? The engine only needs to rev up to 3K with no load. (Only need to flash, emission test, flash back again). Thinking out load now; Would decreasing the load request help? I'm not sure it will? Cheers Title: Re: Decrease CO for MOT?

Nothing you do with your tuning is going to let you pass MOT without a cat. E85 should work though. Title: Re: Decrease CO for MOT? Post by: armageddon on March 17, 2015, 01:54:31 PM You could put water into your exhaust, but then, lambda will be too hight ;D

If you're anywhere near Cardiff, pro-speed exhausts will fit flanges and build you a swappable cat/decat fairly cheaply. Title: Re: Decrease CO for MOT? Post by: mushtafa on March 18, 2015, 01:38:34 PM I'm an MOT tester, I'm sure I can come up with something! Just nice to do it all by the books ;D
