emissions

Hi

just out of interest as i am not ready for the IVA stuff just yet, but how do you go on with the emissions on the IVA. i am putting a GSXR1000 in my mk indy. i bought the header pipes from mk but didnt get the can. i forgot to ask them if i need there exhaust on or if i can use a normal motorbike can. anyone had to deal with the emissions issue?

cheers
Rog

What year is the engine, carbs or injection?
Pre Aug'95 and you can don't need a cat. Post '95 and the requirements are strickter, you'll need a cat' (not the bike one).

Remember, the minute you stick a bike engine in a car, it becomes a car engine as far as emmissions go, so stricter than for a post '95 bike also.

Hi

its a 2006 k6 engine, fuel injection.

the exhaust that MK sell, does that have the cat built into it?

do you know if you need to remap the fuel injection to get the emissions down or will just the cat be ok?

You'll need a car size cat. MK do a silencer with a cat built in I believe. You'll also need a PowerCommander to adjust the fueling.
