Default Getting inspection ready with HPT

Just got my HP tuner in yesterday and downloaded what I currently have in my car. I'm not really satisfied with the current tune (done 7+ yrs ago with LS1 Edit), but I know that the learning process will take a while and I am fine with that so I'm not looking to do a huge overhaul at this time. Right now though, I would like to know what I need to do in order for it to pass inspection since it expired at the beginning of this month.

I've been looking through a lot of the threads and have a general idea of what I want to do. Make sure codes aren't disabled so that they will pass the readiness test, but being as this is the first time to use this program, I'd rather not screw up the car in the process.

Thanks guys

Just make sure you save a copy of the original so you can put it back.

Are you going to cheat and disable codes or are you planning to tinker with the air-fuel mix to get it to pass?

Tinkering with the AFR will not keep removed systems such as air or EGR from failing his car.
