The somg ref has a bay in the same shop as my auto class (the school rents 
it out to him for extra cash) and what he told me is that I have to check 
out the EO's listed online and if all the parts are there, he will pass it 
and put a sticker on it. He did mention that the EO had to be for the year 
of the engine, fuel management, turbo and components, ect ect. I was able to 
find EO's for the right years, only they are for CIS cars. The G60 uses the 
Digi system so I am SOL on that part. Here is a list of the EO's for Turbo 
Systems/Turbo Modifications allowed for smog use in CA

He said I might be able to pass if I restore the g60 back to VW spec. He 
went on to mention that the chassy really doesn't matter, since its the 
engine and management system being tested.

What should I do??
