E-testing in Oakville/Burlington
 
Where have people been going to have their e-test done?
I'm due.
Any special things to do to ensure a pass?

Welp.. I could be wrong. All I seem to remember was last year when I got my renewal sticker's for my 04 tib they stated that they pushed back the required testing date by acouple of years for the 04's as the vast majority of cars were passing. Entirely possible that the Rotary's aren't included in that group... If you got the form telling you to get tested then I guess ya gotta either way.

Check it out. 2004's are due in 2009 for their test and depending on your birthday for the month.

My spidey senses tell me that I should only be going to a testing center as opposed to a testing AND repair center. That's what I did in 2002 when I was driving my AWD Talon and all was good. The last thing I want is to go for the test and some non-rotary mechanic will want to start playing doctor on my 8.
Testing centers only near me are the following.

As luck would have it the Saturday storm knocked one of the generators at our office silly so they turned us around at the parking lot this morning. This allowed me to finally get the Drive Clean test done to the 8 as I have been driving around 'off code' a touch.
I meant to install the new plugs and wires that have been sitting in the garage now aging nicely before attempting the tests but I through caution to the wind and tried her anyway.
Test results.

40 KPH Dyno test:
HC ppm LIMIT 48 RX8 .02 PASS
CO % LIMIT 0.27 RX8 0.11 PASS
NO ppm Limit 347 RX8 10 PASS

CURB IDLE TEST
HC ppm LIMIT 150 RX8 00 PASS
CO% LIMIT 0.7 RX8 0.0 PASS

Gas cap PASS

Me thinks that a car would have to be really out of tune to pass these tests given my results today.
