New Mexico is emissions Nazis... not like cali but as long as it passes an OBD2 check (passes 2/3rds of the tests built into the CEL system) it passes emissions. Most states are the same. Some are more lenient. But I always say, they don't need to know what's under the hood. Lol find yourself a friend that works at an emissions place and troubles are solved.
