|
View Full Version : Is RX8 LEV? stockae92 10-02-2003, 02:44 PM Low Emission Vehicle? JaxFL_RX8 10-02-2003, 03:14 PM Judging from a lot of comments about the soot on our tailpipes, I'd say NOT. RodsterinFL 10-02-2003, 03:25 PM actually it is. As a matter of fact that is the reason there is 9 horsepower less. THere were some posts on here that the car had NO EMISSIONS - at a state test in TN and another state somewhere else. Mazda says LEV-II or Stage 4 for Europe stockae92 10-02-2003, 03:49 PM zero emission? possible? maybe there is a place where we can get emission info? EPA web site?

NO WAY it is not an LEV as most rotary engine are not. I am going to change the exhaust manifold and muffler to make it even worse heheh :D wakeech 10-02-2003, 07:30 PM Originally posted by takahashi NO WAY it is not an LEV as most rotary engine are not. no, really it is. the catalytic converter and ECU tuning really make all the difference. RX-GR8 10-02-2003, 09:08 PM i was told my car is classified as ULEV (Ultra low emmision vehicle) is that even more efficient than LEV or are they the same? stockae92 10-02-2003, 09:50 PM Mazda didn't say anything anywhere about it? just wondering |
