as far as i know that is bull. if thats the case there would be tons of v8 powered cars being pulled of the road all the time.

 

it's fine. that's bull..


you did a swap?!?

 

It is bull. Look at your ownership. What does it say?

NUmber of cylinders: (in my nissan sentra 1988 it says 8 actually lol)
and
Type of gasoline:


Stay in these parameters and continue to put a different car under the dyno for etest and you will be OK.

 

they cant do sh1t as far as legality
but your insurance can cancel your coverage if they want, there has been a few cases where insurance companies have found out about engine swaps and turbos and canceled that day. but if you dont claim small mods like lowering springs they dont have to cover you either. its just and easy way for them to save money if you wreck your car.

 

I turboed my 94 elantra.
Im from Toronto

Swapped to a 4g63 motor built and should be running about 600hp

GT40 Turbo
AEM EMS
ETC....

 

Mother**** insurance companies... they gave me nothing for my blue pony when I totalled it.

Although they didn't seem to care that I requested to pull the engine from the shell... didn't even care that I put in a larger engine into it to begin with. (200 cc difference)

 

Thanks guys. It sounded like bs. And I hope we are right. Im not too woried about etest.

it's fine. that's bull..


you did a swap?!?

Man, we should meet up one day and you can check it out.

 

yes man. I want/need to man that passenger seat!

and my endless questions since I need to get my swap going!

hah K-DUB!

I love that place... it's the last salvation for pony parts, cheap junkyards, and where I bought my 2002 focus rims on my pony (for $200 with rubbers)

K dub what!!

 

yep, gotta love the k dub

 

The way it works in ontario is: if you swap an engine, it must be from the same model year or newer so that it meets the emission standards of the year of your car.
and the exhaust and all the sensors have to be intact and working.
So turbocharging your engine will not violate any laws, as long as your car blows clean on the driveclean test.

Legally you can certify a car without an engine in it, but all the emission controls must be there, go figure.

 

swapping engines does not have to be the same model, i know of several stangs that have had 500+ cu in engines installed where a 302 use to sit!

for emissions, it goes under the hot rod classification, as for insurance, they rule the road, without it, your screwed.

btw, what is k-dub?

kdub = Kitchener-Waterloo, it is a city
