Has anyone gotten their K-Pro equipped s2000 inspected (I'm talking about the yearly safety/emissions inspection)? I am leaning heavily towards K-Pro to avoid the hassles of getting the s2000 inspected with an AEM EMS, was just curious if anyone has encountered this situation here yet.

I know you can find someone to pass it no matter what, but I want it to be able to pass at most places and avoid a hassle.

Thanks!

 

Ask RyanDL, he had one on his RSX.

 

why doesnt everyone just go to a shop in the hood and throw them extra cash seems like less of a hassle to me

 

^ Doesn't always work.

 

60% of the time it works every time??

 

harder to get away with when they hook the computer to the obd2 port.

 

as long as you're not throwing a code.. you pass..

 

not exactly, they run "readiness" tests before they even begin the full tests. I'm not sure if a KPRO does or does not mimic the PCM's routine functions to fool a diagnostics machine.

 

Agreed. If your ECU is not reflecting emissions Ready codes (which can even show "Not Ready" just by unplugging your battery!) then you will fail emissions. Most shade-tree shops have stopped performing illegal emissions examinations.

 

True, I did have it on the RSX, so I can answer a few things.

First, I had all the necessary emissions equipment on my RSX, so it didn't throw any codes. Second, the K-Pro allows you to turn off the OBD-II sensors, but I would guess that this will cause it to fail the readiness test performed during inspection.

If you have no cat and the O2 sensor delete hack, you should be fine -- the car will pass the emissions readiness test through the OBD-II port. I don't know if the K-Pro will help you get around this.
