Default Arizona Emissions

Hey, just had a few questions that were a little too specific to search for. I was thinking I could remove my AIR and EGR but I have no idea exactly how Arizona tests emissions. I know you get plugged into a computer instead of rollers or whatever, but I wasn't sure if I could pass without them?

Any help? thanks!

Just make sure you are not throwing a code when you go for the emission test.

when i took my car to emissions, all they did was run the pcm, checked for codes, didnt have any so moved me forward. no visual, no rollers, no snoiffer. i passed and was out in 7 minutes.

same thing on my nephews 02 SS camaro. no visuals or anything, just checked for codes, and called it a day. i go to the one on 48th st n Washington.

Do what I do. Register your car in a shitty state and never change the plates.
