PA Inspection I'm going to be running long tube, catless headers on a catless exhaust on a 2000 Camaro Z28 with the codes turned off down at RPM. Will it pass the OBD2 scan, and what is the deal with tailpipe testing? I hear some places do it, and some places only on 1995 and earlier cars in the state of PA.

The law says 96 and newer cars get an OBD2 emissions test. That's it no visual. Also before they had visual inspections as part of the state inspection but for cars that get emissions test that was removed from the state inspection criteria.

Um no. I am inspector and I know the law very well because I have had this discussion with other techs and instructors that teach the emission class.
The law says 96 and newer cars get an OBD2 emissions test. That's it no visual. Also before they had visual inspections as part of the state inspection but for cars that get emissions test that was removed from the state inspection criteria.
