Ok So i just took my 2002 RSX Type S with Exhaust Stock cat and stock header and injen intake to get emissions and he said they cant do it.. Its throwing a code for something to do with Fuel mixture... and he said my ECU has to do a Dry Cycle.. Ive been driving my car for well over 1500 miles since i bought it.. any comments? Please help.

so did you have a cel before going there?

Yea

uh Never Show up there with a Cel because you will never pass that way. What I did was I was running an emanage and I reset the Ecu and drove around for 50 miles then I drove to get emmission done right after the drive and i never turned off the car then I passed emmissions.

Doesnt matter you also have to take the ECU or the spare fuse out in the fuse box them tap the brake pedal to make sure their is no electrical current left.

i usually leave it all undone for a couple of minutes too.

If your failing for emissions and there is a cel...why did you take your car for inspection? Even if you clear the cell they will scan your ECU and it will come up. The thing to do is find out why that is throwing the code and get that fixed. I have 68k miles on my RSX and never had a CEL on it. I have intake/header/exhaust/reflash.
