Default Friendly Inspection in N.Harris Co. ?

I'm getting Pacesetter LT's and off road Y-pipe put on today, my AIR, EGR and Cats are history. Codes will be deleted.



Anyone know of a good place to go, my stickers up at the end of the month.

I tried, but my passenger side AIR valve was stuck and throwing a code, I reset my computer by pulling the fuse and driving right to the inspection place, this place was right off Westpark

This guy was all over my ****, crawling up underneath the car to look at my exhaust, he put a hose on my gas cap to check the pressure, hooked up the ODB scanner , started the car drove it around the parking lot came back hooked up ODB again. after like 20 minutes of this crap he told me i had some 'not ready' codes and he couldn't pass me

I still had to pay

drive it some more let the codes ready themselves and go back, they will only charge you for the first visit.

You will pass without cats, as long as the inspector does not look under the car and provided you have no codes... Seems to be hit or miss with inspection stations...Try one of the oil change places, if you car is lowered they probably cannot pull it all the way into the bay, so no looking under the car ... I lucked out with my F-body at a Jiffy Lube. There was no way the car would clear the channel around the open bay and no way was Fatty McFatty inspector getting down on all fours to look...

Yea, but only the second one is free. Don't ask me how I know. Basically, you pay for every odd # (1st, 3rd, 5th, etc...) of times you try to get it inspected.
