When you say No (PPM) are you referring to Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx)? If so then it is because you are getting too hot in the combustion chamber. The EGR system is there to add just enough exhaust gas to dilute the A/F mix and reduce chamber temps by about 500 Deg. Make it richer and you increase HC but NOx goes down. Lean it out and NOx goes up but HC goes down. You still have to worry about CO, CO2, and O2 levels. Trying to map the right A/F mix to balance out the emissions crap can drive you mad! Good luck!!

So now at 44 what the hell do I do?

How does higher octane help? I'd imagine that lower octane would work better, because it's burns slightly easier.

Try one range hotter plugs...or maybe even new plugs before testing.

Worse comes to worse... try a ghetto shop in South Central...

my question beyond any other shit in here is why the FUCK are you so obsessed with speeding? ticket for 90 in a 45, expired registration, BRAGGING about doing 125 3 times a day! your a fucking muderer just waitng for a victim...your gay 'fast and furious' attitude needs to go elsewhere.

this is the exact type of "member" that we should NOT help or encourage in any way, and in fact should be banned from this sight all together, im my opinion.

if anyone thinks im being a dick, go here:
