This has been discussed before and debunked. Unless an inspection station has a tech2 or hptuners or efilive to specifically scan our cars and check the tune, they are not going to be able to tell squat.

I believe he failed because the rear o2's were not communicating or something like that. It is an 03 Cobra, according to the other threads on this subject the Fords are having a problem with this.
So this is nothing new regarding the inspection stations being able to tell that we have a tune, this is what it's been like for years. They check OBDII codes and readiness statuses. But they can't tell if those statuses are normal or have been altered by a custom tune.

Yeah see, that's nothing new...if something isn't communicating then they will fail for that test. The right tune will fix that right up and the station will never know it was tuned out.

I'm glad I don't have to deal with that stuff with my 95. MA inspections are tough enough.
My car has been passing with LTs for a few years now. Just last week I tuned my buddies cammed/catless car to pass inspection with flying colors.
If that's not lenient then idk what is LOL.
Back when I lived in NJ, such a car wouldn't even make it to the inspector...they would just tell you to take a hike as you pulled into the station.

I would say they're quite the opposite.

yes and Depends how the cat-check sensors are working. If they hooked up with Sims and the SES isn't disabled, it should show up fine on an OBD check. My cammed ORY car passes fine (2x so far.) But I've been wanting to put the cats back on anyway. Just in case DOT/Staties decide to give me the white glove inspection. A quiet exhaust will typically keep them off your back also.
