Subject:      emissions data
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

given all this talk about emissions i am interested in getting some emissions data. i have always generally considered that the new the engine the better the engines emissions. hence the california swap regulation that you can swap in a new engine but not a older engine. so i would like to find out the emissions of several model years and makes of volkswagens. i have no idea where to acquire this data. i assume the epa site might have the data some where or it could be in an emissions test manual or book.

i have always figured that engine swapping with NA approved engines from later model cars was a good way to improve my vanagons emissions. i would like to see how much better my actual emission should be.

i would like to get data for the following years and makes of volkswagens. thanks for what you can contribute.
