Hi All,
My MY93WRX has just failed on emisions, i got it nice and hot before taking it in.
Basicly has anyone got any sugestions as to what i can do with it, the Lambda and HC tests were fine but the CO was around the .70 mark (.30 is pass) on the fast idle (2600 rpm), but passed fine on the normal idle.

Any ideas ?

(no decat sections as far as i know and the centre pipe looks fairly new)

Hi Paul,
I added a uk centre, and BB,still using the original wrx downpipe
(which houses the main cat).
That had no probs.

What fuel is in it ??
If your on SUL alone, try adding some OB
