Does anyone have any tips?

I posted this on the Smog Section of the forum but since maybe one or two people ever look in that section I figure Id ask in this section. Can I get any advice as to how to pass smog in California? Heres the original link.

Test Only Smog Test?

Eric can burn you a smog chip, which helps most pass.

EDIT: they are not as much as regular chips either.

I am sure that Gofstbuick will respond in this or the Smog Section as soon as he can, he might be away for the weekend. I have been on Test only on any turbo Buick that I have had within the last 7 years or so, maybe 8, and that includes 5 turbo Buicks. Unless you live in a very underpopluated area, you will be hit for test only. TT makes chips for this purpose, and you might want to give Lou Czarnota a call. He could also be in Vegas/Phoenix for the weekend races. Lou's cell is (949) 378-1590. Lou has resolved many a turbo Buick smog issue. I don't think that there are any Ca "Test Only" illegal smog stations. If there are, hopefully nobody will put in print the name/station # on an open forum, but E-mail or PM you a response. Hint, hint. HTH
