A new study led by researchers at the University of Michigan compared regulated and unregulated emissions from both light-duty passenger car (1.7 L/2004 calibration engines. Unregulated pollutants also include ozone precursors and bioaccumulative and toxic compounds. L engine was operated under both 2004 and 2007 calibrations.
