Do they do the sniffer test ? Did you have a CEL?
Did they do a visual test?
All 3 tests are done in California and many other States. The bright shiny headers are an instant give away for the Visual unless the headers come with a CARB number. I am not trying to spoil the fun. I love this stuff. But if you get Smog Test problems it will be an expensive mistake.Just check first .Basically if you get a CEL or can see chrome headers underneath you will fail in any State with California Smog Test rules .

no CEL's from pipes. OH does visual on all inspections, sniffer on some and OBD hook-up
on all others. Only done in most populated counties.. not done state-wide.
much easier than CA and some other states.

How lucky you are !
The new DAD smog machines are coming to Ohio ? Our rep tells us which States they are doing tech presentations in .The California disease is spreading.
