if your car came equipped with an EGR....and you don't install it on the FAST...than yeah you probably would fail emissions...as well as trip a code.

if you have a non-egr car from the factory (01-02 fbody) than it would bolt right up. no codes...theoreticaly you should pass emissions.

HOWEVER if it throws your a/f off...it could cause you to fail the smog test

your car is not equipped with egr, if evrything is correct, you should throw no codes, but idk about cali emmissions. will still need to get tuned for it, if it does thrw codes

I think the FAST manifold itself may fail the visual inspection.
