Emissions testing - opacity numbers
Here in beautiful Connecticut (truly is) we have emissions testing on diesels. I just completed mine today and the sniff test, which only checks on opacity, reported that my truck has an opacity of 2.6 out of a permissible 20.
Now, I wonder in the real world how comparable this is to others. Please share your numbers.
Note, I have a PowerMax turbo, tuned by Gearhead, running the 8K tow but otherwise stock everything, including an EGR (albeit bulletproof version).

also im surprised they leave it up to the inspector on the amount of smoke.

Funny, the state of Washington has decided not to test diesel motors 07 and newer.
Interesting they decided on that year since the 6.0 didn't change much after, emissions wise, 03.

I do have to do the snap test on mine, I will look for my last print out. I put my engine back to stock for the test.

Same county and you go from not testing to testing.
I think that fire yesterday made more smoke then my truck ever will.
Only a 3 alarm last I heard.

I once made a suggestion once instead of spending millions building wast disposal facilities, just to dump it in active volcanoes. Shurly would not release much more poloutants than was allready being released.
Not exactly a well liked suggestion. Still don't see why tho. Just me I guess.

Just another way to get older vehicles off of the road!
