Sold to #1 in line. Thanks for your interest.

PM replied, but no answer for a couple of days now. If nothing by tomorrow, I will repost their availability.

It's still for sale. I still drive it daily. I would drive it anywhere.

* Reduced Price * Now $6,400 Car is now back on the market and a greatly reduced $6400. Since the original posting a year + ago, I have put on new tires all around and a new set of ball joints (upper and lower). I need a tow vehicle for a tent trailer, and this is NOT IT!

You even got pictures of my heap in there. BTW, it's still for sale. Now only $6800!! See the write up at: http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/cars-sale/315920-1987-turbo-t-socal-7-000-a.html

I've got one I could put on, but I don't like the sound. Too much drone. At my level of street performance, the cat is not holding me back. The California crap gas is. I put an adjustable wastegate on to turn the stock boost down.

Finally Passed! :) Fixing the EVRV did the trick. 15mph @ 1567rpm: %CO2=14.30 %O2=0.48 HC=21 (max 110) CO=.00 (max 0.72) NO=255 (max 772) 25mph @ 1946rpm: %CO2=14.40 %O2=0.34 HC=20 (max 85) CO=.00 (max 0.59) NO=262 (max 711)

RobS: Thanks for the heads up on the Extender chip. That explains something I saw yesterday. I put the vacuum gauge on and drove with the Extender. No vacuum at all. Then I switched to a Thrasher chip. Good vacuum readings. The chip I take in to smog with is not the Extender, and I...

OK, I think I found the problem. I tried to "T" in a vaccum signal line from the 'Electronic Vacuum Regulator Valve" [that's what it's called; I looked it up]. When I pushed a vacuum line on, the top of the EVRV basically fell backwards! WTF?! The EVRV has 2 major sections held together...

I put a vacuum pump to the egr port at idle. The engine stumbled as expected when vacuum was applied. That's about all I know to do to test the egr. I guess that doesn't prove that the electronic controller box is working. I can "T" in a vaccum gauge to the line between the egr controller and...

Failed Again :mad: 15mph @ 1566rpm: %CO2=14.40 %O2=0.34 HC=17 (max 110) CO=.01 (max 0.72) NO=1653 (max 772) [even WORSE than last time!] 25mph @ 1153rpm: %CO2=14.52 %O2=0.22 HC=13 (max 85) CO=.00 (max 0.59) NO=590 (max 711) In California, cars this old must go to "Check Only" stations...

:confused: Walker 3" in-n-out. I supposed it's the old style.

Got a new cat put in. I'll run half my full tank out to burn off the coating on the brick, then take it back for the test. Thanks for all the input, and I'll let you know the results later in the week.
