I had a 93 MR2 Turbo that had trouble passing emissions test. Like you, I had just done a tune up on it myself. I took the car to Toyota and they said nothing wrong with it and passed it on their own emission test. The guy there said it has to go in hot off the road to pass. You cannot stay long in a line idling or you will not pass, this was my mistake. If mine went in hot on a drive up, it passed easily, but if I drove up and waited in line for long, it would fail. Find a shop with no line, if you have been driving for awhile take her straight in, otherwise take a couple of laps up and down the street first.
