Emissions in Northern Virginia
What are the restrictions on passing emissions in Northern Virginia? I recently installed a turbo and I also have HID. I was wondering if I'm going to fail because of these upgrades. I, however, have a catalytic convert so...
What stuff do they check?

I'm not sure the exact specs. My buddy tried to get a 240 sx and it just wouldn't pass emissions there. Its higher than MD where you gotta have a 1.0 PPM hydrocarbon reading or lower.
BTW, I have the same Inital D remote control car. Its awsome. I need new tires for it though.

I don't know what these numbers mean but maybe you can explain
There's three categories HC, CO, NO and they are measured in MPH/RPM range. look at the table below as an example for a montero sport:
MPH HC CO NO RPMs
15 87 4.8 655 1600
25 84 .47 594 1300
