Come on guys! This is a win win situation, we wouldn't need to ever pass SMOG!!!! That alone would be awesome!!! Even if your not on E85 now you know you would if that meant you never had to SMOG your EVO again!!! This **** should sell it self!!

Umm no. I'm going to deviate from the "norm" here as some of us actually care about the environment.

Hmmm I am kind of on the fence on this... I mean I understand what bluebanana and Boltz are sayin but what about the states that are already don't have any smog regulations like Kansas and Florida?! Plus don't most of us run test pipes or high flow cats anyway except when its time to get smog tests?? Looking at the glass half full it seems that this petition was iniated with the understanding that major modifications would have to be made to cars so they would be able to run this fuel, ergo making them non emission compliant and in so doing for all consumers that elect to undergo said changes in the name of (fill in the blank) they would in the end get a pass yea??? Am I trackin or not so much

Signed, smog is just a tax we didn't vote on. They should bug the people that let there cars run like crap and pollute because they are in disrepair.

Its all good! Its amazing that in countries like Brazil, that they have almost become self reliant on alternative fuels!! Most of their vehicles are flex-fuel capable, and use whatevers cheaper!
