Default Test pipe and inspection

Anybody know a shop that will pass me with a test pipe on? Inspection is due this month... Located in Fort Worth.

Should pass anywhere as long as the cel is not on. I am in the same boat, only have an NA tune to deal with as well.

Just a straight hookup to the obd 2 port. I wonder if the inspectors even know what a test pipe is?

I was surprised that I passed without even having my secondary O2 sensor connected. I disabled it with the FlashPro, so there was no CEL, but the Readiness check showed "Not Ready" for the catalyst check. I thought they were going to require me to come back after the readiness check occurred, but they said you are allowed to have 1 "Not Ready".

Gernby, so you think the vafc should not affect an inspection if the flashpro did not?

Vafc won't have an effect on anything. If they ask, say it is a vtec monitor.
