2.5" exhaust.
Wtf is a "backpressure valve"? Do you mean EGR?
Pulse air is hooked up, not that it would make any difference. The only function of the the pulse air valve is to pre-heat the cat so the car will run "cleaner" before the engine is fully warmed. Since the tests were all done while the car was hot, the PAIR valve wouldn't have made a shit of a difference.
Its failing a regular test-only... 30 mph test, iirc.
Are you sure you're really a smog tech? lol
