[mkiv] Smoging

[the_queen_is_dead at cox.net]

Thought I'd throw this out there since this topic is being discussed.

Just had my '95TT 6-spd smogged recently in CA. Car has over 150K  
miles and I hadn't changed the oil or plugs even semi-recently. Also  
needs work to fix some oil leaks (I know, shame on me). Didn't seem  
to have much problem at all. It was just the standard tailpipe, no  
rollers test. The only problems I ever had with it passing in mostly  
stock condition was when the egr valve was bad. Replaced it...  
problem solved.

Anyway, just didn't want people to be overly worried about getting it  
to pass.
