Default APS passing smog in So-Cal

Hey so any you guys have an APS system passing smog in So-Cal? im looking into getting one and im wondering how it would do. i know it wouldent pass the inspection cuz it wouldent have a CARB sticker blah blah. People keep telling me this thats just the inspection portion and i can get around that. its just the sniffer that you cant bullshit.

Find someone who has a stock camaro and a smog tech that's willing to do it... most likely you would fail the ASM test. I'm about 95% sure. The limits are set so low for newer cars they sometimes fail if they haven't had a tune-up done...

tomz28 has one the reason I say not a chance is because of the relocation of the cats or lack there of with this system. The turbos set in the old location of the cats.

And thus.... it will fail... OR... just go get a pre-test done... some places only charge 20 for one... DMV can see the results but can't do anything about them.... Pass or Fail...
