Pardon my ignorance, but why do you have to disable the SC for inspection?

I dont see why you have to disable the SC.. its not like it will pass you or throw codes when its running... Ive passed inspection with the SC still in the car, as long as there are no codes in the OBD you will pass just fine.

we're in two different areas of the world.. i'm on the other side to be precise.

no modifications are allowed on cars here. not even stickers/vinyl. so yeah, i have do disable that SC to pass inspection.

you should be ok, if anything you'll run pig rich because you've removed air from the mix, which is better than running lean... All the same i've stay out of it till you put the belt back on.

is there a visual inspection? if so, removing the cog belt isn't going to make the blower disappear

i passed inspection no problems, vortech, no cats etc...

removing the cog belt is not going to take the supercharger away..dont know what to tell u...also if u take the cog belt off and run the car its gonna run rich just baby it and dont go wot..y would u need to go wot..just drive the car and remove the belt right before u get to the shop if thats what u are gonna do..takes 2 mns.. but really seems pointless, i mean the haltech and all other supporting mods are still there including the whole kit on the car

why in the world will the car run rich?

You will only be in vacuum, so it will be no different than running with the SC out of boost.

Visual and sound/noise inspection.. but since the car is 2006, they won't bother looking under the hood unless they hear the whisle from the BPV, because they inspect the sound/noise of the exhaust as well, so i'll have to rev a bit.

removing the cog belt would disable the BPV as well, isn't it?
