Bypassing emissions?

I have one last question -can a car be tuned by someone who bought a handheld tuner and knows what their doing disable the sensors, or is a "real deal" mail order or dyno tune necessary?
You don't need a dyno tune to turn off codes, you just need someone with the real software (hptuners, efi live or any of the handheld's actual tuning software).

Fellow Atlanta resident (Sandy Springs). Here's the scoop: you'll need someone to pull the codes out with the tune first. Once the codes are no longer an issue, you'll pass the OBD II test all day long.
The rub in Atlanta is the "visual" component of the test. Most testers will walk around with a mirror and look specifically for the cats. Finding a "blind" emissions tester is the hard part (however not impossible)!
