Question 228R? Emissions?

So I am planning on doing a 228R cam in my 01' T/A. I live in Colorado and wanted to know if there is someone out there that has a similar cam or larger cam that still passes the sniffer test. In Colorado we have the sniffer test as well as a visual on the cats. I do need to buy cats as i have long tubes & ory.

Also if i stick with the 228R what numbers could i expext? I do have a full bolt-on car. Thanks for the help.

The exact same cam. Yes its very daily drivable. Its actually in my daily. 114 lsa will be easier to tune and will have better street manners under most conditions than say a 228r 112 or 111
