I just took the ole 98 that has an O/R H-pipe with Flowmaster 44's to have the emissions done and she Passed with Straight A's
They wanted me to pull in over the oil pits, but my car is soo Low the kmember wont clear. I had to go around the shop and back up into the bay door. I was tring hard not to romp on it. The guy doing the test asked if it had been in the shop? I was like NOPE, with this big ass im lieing<-spelchk) look on my face. He said he knew it didnt have converters because the exhaust smelled so bad....Oh, well As long as it passed it what i told him...

I know a guy who had an Offroad H and just went to a Goodyear tire place for inspection. He had the MIL turned off and still passed. This is in PA and they are pretty strict here I guess it's hit or miss.

I do have MILs. They dont work though. All i did was disconnect my Batt cable overnight. This caused my CEL to go out. I then drove my car for 4 days and got it inspected today.

I only need them to take off my "catalytic converters functioning below threshold" code and didn't feel like dropping a few hundred for a handheld tuner.
