Re: [VWoT] ETests/ Borbets

["Kreso" <3rdlmnt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  Just going by the readings, they're good readings for the car running
without a cat...  throw on a cat or borrow one and it shuld be ok ...
Another way is to lower the car as low as it can go and make them do a 2
speed idle test (at 2500 rpm and at idle) which is shuld pass..
