As long as and the EGR/AIR and Rear O2's are set to "no error reported" and the SES is enabled, the test will show complete. As far as the visual, depends on how hard they look.
if ur gonna delete ur EGR get a ls6 intake without the egr, i'm sure if u just put a plug in the stock ls1 intake there gonna see that its outta place... plus the benefits from doing that really arent worth the hassle if ur keeping ur stock intake, just cut the egr tube, if u search u'll find out how

well i dont know how good the smog techs are in NY but here in CA we do check for egr and everything else the car is supposed to have and thats called the visual..i am a smog tech myself and if i didnt see an egr or air pump or cats you would fail because you have a sticker in the engine compartment that tells you all your emission parts and if you take that off all the smog shops have a book wich contains the info on your car emission parts..so good luck..like i said depends how good the tech is...he jus might miss it

OK I just passed mine with no egr, no cats, no smog pump, long tube headers, and 235/240 600 cam. My secret: turned off codes as described above, installed hood pins they didn't want to mess with so they didn't lift the hood, and added a third muffler to make the exhuast quiet (harder to hear the lope.) Also have the idle jacked up to 1000 rpm to smooth it out a bit. The other tip is go in when they are busy as hell so they don't take the time to look close. I also passed safety without seat belts, air bags, emergency brake, bumpers, or wippers. I have a nice light car . . .
