Default Where to get emissions done in CT?

It is finally time to get emissions done on my 99 formula. I dont have: cats, EGR, air pump, rear O2's. I do have: longtubes, ORY, magnaflow catback, Mild cam, LS6 manifold. Everything has been tuned out on the PCM and there is no check engine light. What are my chances of me passing? My exhaust is pretty loud but not overly loud at idle but the smell of gas a lope might cause them to look under the car for cats which wouldent be good. I am not too worried about the OBDII scan but I am worried about the visual inspection. Are there any emission places around the new haven area that care more about the OBDII inspection then the visual? Thanks

I go to general muffler in ansonia. I doubt you will pass the plug in or visual, I might be wrong but I thought you were allowed two sensors off.

Put cats on the car and be done with it, I'm sure they won't noticeably hurt performance, you'll pass the visual and the exhaust won't smell like ****, I know mine did w/o cats

Not sure but I tried going through just for the hell of it with my 94 vette and no cats.The guy said that my car failed real bad,like I don't have cats on it.I said oh yeah.He said ,you have cats on it right.I said oh yeah.Mine is obd1 and yours is obd2 as you know.My point he did'nt look for cats on my car so as long as your car passes scan you should be good with visual.
