I wonder how this compares to the emission standards they already have
for four strokes. I know my 4 stroke seems a lot cleaner than the
classic 2 strokes if the smell and lack of smoke is any indication.

Really, just like the vehicle standards.. I hear adds for these new
hybreds and "fuel efficient" cars that get 22-24 mpg.. Crap, most of
my old cars and trucks from the 70's and 80's could do thatl

Not mine! But then again, I went for horsepower and usually had my
foot trying to push throught the firewall.
