10 Easy Tricks to Passing Smog

Check out this piece I wrote for Quazen (Triond network) on passing smog. If the deadline is getting close you might want to check this out.

Oftentimes people fail by a small margin - my tips will usually be enough to get your car to barely squeak by - but hey, passing is passing.

TX7 Additive in Toyota Celica - +4hp, +4 ft/lbs

These runs were done in a last-gen Toyota Celica over at the NewCelica forums. Note not just the peak gains, but all across the powerband. I'm somewhat skeptical as these dyno runs weren't done back to back. I'm also skeptical of oil additives - especially when they come in at $25 a quart.

The spiel from the manufacturer of the TX7 additive:

PolyDyn TX7 is the most unique, and by far, the most superior engine treatment you can buy today.
There simply is no better insurance to add life to your engine.
Does PolyDyn TX7 really work? Just ask the Pros.
20 Years experience at NASA, starting with the Gemini Program
The biggest names in stock car and drag racing, NASCAR, NHRA, SCCA, CART, Boat Racing, IROC plus more, use Polydyn TX7!
Rusty Wallace, Don Prudhomme, Ed McCulloch, Cruz Pedregon, Steve Kinser, A.J. Foyt and many more, including some of the biggest names in high performance race engine builders trust Polydyn TX7 to gain life and performance from their engines!

Why does Polydyn TX7 work so well?

TX7 coats your engine components and is specially formulated to reduce heat build up and friction inside your engine, adding life and improving efficiency.

TX7 retains the oil at the top of the engine, eliminating lubrication lag at start-up.

TX7 provides back-up lubrication in the event of momentary oil starvation.

Add one quart every 12,000 miles with your oil changes to add life to your engine!

TX7 is a Friction Reducing Engine Oil Treatment that protects your engine with a Unique Formulation consisting of TFE in a Para Synthetic Carrier. It is an exclusive metal-treating formula and oil fortifier that bonds to surface contact points of metal components, reducing engine friction dramatically. This unique bond produces a coating that diminishes engine drag and creates lower operating temperatures. TX7 will provide these advantages: Increased Oil Pressure Reduced Viscosity Breakdown Reduced Oil Consumption Reduced Friction Reduced Thermal Breakdown Improved Engine Performance Minimize Engine wear Improved Cold and Dry Starting Note: Do not use TX7 in a new rebuild because the engine will not seat properly. Only once the engine has been broken in properly TX7 should be used. Do not use TX7 in a wet clutch application, such as in motorcycles TX7 can be used for most types of engines, transmissions and power steerings.
