Looks like California is going to have new smog check standards in place soon in my part of the state. They are going to use a dyno. Here's the info I pulled off of the DMV website:
"Enhanced and Partially Enhanced Area stations use equipment called the BAR-97 Emissions Inspection System (EIS), which uses a treadmill-like device called a dynamometer to simulate actual driving conditions. BAR-97 measures oxides of nitrogen (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon monoxide (CO). Large trucks, some four-wheel drive vehicles, and some vehicles with traction control will receive a BAR-97 inspection without the use of the dynamometer."

Is the SVX one of the exempt vehicles? I know some other states use a dyno for smog checks and was wondering what the experience has been. I think it wouldn't be too good for the AWD system.

Thanks,
