title says it all, time to smog test the 7.2 and I'm looking for suggestions from fellow Bay Area RLers for a good place to smog test my GT3 (w/SW bypass)

TIA

The current protocol is a test via the OBD as they no longer sniff the exhaust (but you probably knew that). If you are looking for a shop that'll ignore the bypass then I hope a RLer can help you out. I just use my local Chevron and have never had a problem with my stock .2.

Bypass shouldn't matter, since you're not touching the cats. I've had my car smogged twice in San Mateo, both times at a random small Indy shop. I wouldn't worry about where you take it.

I did my smog test a month ago at Porsche of Fremont on my RS with the SW bypass.

It's a rather straight forward task. No surprises. Passed with no issue at all.

larry, with bypass, you still can pass any where.
but i usually have fremont porsche do it rather than have other smog shop fiddle with my toys.

Another reason why it's best not to register cars in the people republic of CA.

Thanks - exactly what I was thinking, really looking for a shop that will take care with the car!
