Default Will I pass emissions in CT?

I have a 99 firebird LS1 and have the EGR removed due to an LS6 intake swap. I am planning on putting on an ORY with out cats, removing the air, putting on Pacesetter longtubes, SLPLoudmouth catback, and a mail order tune from Frost to remove the SES codes and getting everything running right. Because I have OBII i dont believe i will have to do the sniffer in CT. Should I pass and what do the emission techs look for when plugging into the OBII? Thanks

don't think you'll pass...

they look for all of the emissions readiness tests to have a status of "complete"... for your '99, you are allowed to have 2 readiness tests not pass...

but, and with all of the stuff you've removed and codes disabled, I think you'll have more than that... heh....

Where in CT are ya?? I'm in Woodbury....

oh, and here's some info:

Thanks for the info. I am located in Branford. I have looked at other threads and alot of people dont even think twice about removing the egr, air and cats. If the error codes get disabled/deleted wont that not trigger any flags? Also if i get a cated Y pipe does it come with premade O2 holes (so then i will pass with two flags (ie. egr and air)) or is the cats just for the sniffer?
