I unpluged the battery before I went not knowing that the results would say not completed. He told me to come back in 100 miles. Anyways my question is. The emissions checked OBD Sec Air. I was told by trifecta that it can be tuned out which is true. I was also told I would pass emissions if it was tuned out. Now is my computer in my car telling emissions I have secondary air injection? Or is emissions telling me I have secondary air injection? I don't want to delete it and them find out it was removed. So basicaly my question is if it tuned out will emissions still know its suppose to have it?? Emissions in nevada when you go get the test it automatically sends the info to DMV.I dnt want to get popped for messing with emiision controls. Any info is appreciated thanks

i don't think you'll get in trouble, I dont know the law in NV, but if anything, they'll jus fail you an you gotta go get check there(or somewhere else) again

Well I def don't want to fail I want it street legal so I can drive it on the street. I want to turbo it later. What if later when I get a turbo mainifold could I have the SAI welded on the on the header. Kinda like the racing solutions sai header?

Secondary air is a FEDERAL emissions device, if they scan your car and it comes up with faults for it that's gonna raise some eyebrows, then they are gonna look at the emissions label on the car and it says secondary air is installed, then you might get in trouble. If its tuned out, it's tuned out. As long as there is no light and no faults in the ECM for it you can sneak by. How ever, and I've said this before, change your emissions label on the car if you tune it out and take it off, if the inspector does his job right and checks the label it's gonna say its supposed to be there.

i dont know how that works, you should call a place that does it and ask them.. "if they have a system that says you're supposed to have a SAI, and you don't have one, what will be the outcome" etc..

Honestly, I think you should be good... I've seen some heavily modified cars still pass emissions, but i dunno how strict NV is about all that..

its also federally mandated for me to have a cat on my car.... but i dont. I pass emissions, never heard a peep out of anyone.

what year is your car, i know can help with SAI if you have the LAP motor

Balto82

Its a 07. And yes when I did emisions he did look at that label and it does say air. Idk. Maybe ill just leave the sai stuff on hanging around for later. Icant get it to throw a code for sai unless I take the fuse out anyways

If it was federal then all deltas would have them. Its California emissions.

I'm sorry your correct, it is a calli emissions device, but federal law is that if a device was on the car when it was built, it has to be there when it's inspected, actually I think is worded as "the device has to appear to be on the vehicle and in working condition."
So if your that worried just put the pump and lines back on leave the fuse out and make sure the car is hot when you get inspected. It only runs when the car is cold.


07cobaltguy, somebody's not doing there job lol, lucky you.

07cobaltguy

we dont get inspections. we pull into the bay at the dmv test station, they plug into the car, you can pass with one readyness monitor not set. Bang your done.

if i ever move to a state that requires emissions ill just throw my stock dp back on and stay out of boost that day lol.

Balto82

I'm not changing vins I just need one for emissions sticker. Does not have vin on emissions label. Just need a label that doesn't say air injection on it. I got the idea from someone on here, thanks!

Balto82

And sai is not it the down pipe it in the header....

05-06.5 did not have sai. Mine is a 06 built in April so I was below the cutoff although it also depends where the car is from, My buddy Josh had a 07 with no sai.
