Default NJ inspection

Where are you guys getting stickers that are running ORP's? Its inspection time for me and I know it will not pass the visual, I know they check b/c the nj stations have cameras under the cars. Guess I'm looking for a private place. Guess one option is apply for inspection exemption, you get a triangle sticker and are limited to 3k miles I believe which is fine seeing I've gone not even that in 4yrs

The triangle inspection sticker is called "Collector Car" inspection which is for 2 years/6000 miles and it's not all that simple to get anymore.

So I've been told. I'll be going to dmv tomorrow to get the paper work .......I gotta start checking out some local places.. May have to weigh the cost of two cats vs price of a sticker.

Most private places just plug in to the OBD2 port. As long as you aren't throwing any codes you pass. No special sticker, normal inspection.

When I do LT headers, since we are in NJ, I am going to cat my Y-pipe. I watched the cameras and all they check for is a post cat, at least from what I could tell.

As long as you have a tune to prevent the CEL from coming on from !EGR and !AIR and !PRE-CATS then you should be good 2 go with a post cat in the Y pipe

A good tune will take care of any codes , hollow cats is always a good option.
