I'm with the wolf here, any environmentally friendly properties of my car is only a side effect of cost efficiency. I run my ignition timing advanced to the edge of what will pass both parts of a smog test, I put out more HC, CO, and NOx per cubic meter of exhaust gas (I even put out more HC, CO, and NOx per cubic meter than my dad's carburated corolla in part because I'm on factory catalysts and catalyst efficiency monitoring oxygen sensor and until 2013 I was on the factory upper oxygen sensor) vs running the ignition timing retarded, but my overall exhaust gas volume is lower. Even better, unless I run the AC at idle my car can't even keep the catalysts lit up anymore because they are so degraded.
