What code are you throwing due to the emanage? If it's engine coolant temp low (p0128) you just need to cut the wire spliced in that feeds the emanage that info. I had the same problem. I also ran non-foulers on test pipes and didnt throw a code. With your mods you should be able to run code-less. The airbag light might be your only problem. Fix the codes, not the inspection.

I was told that using different plugs may clear the misfire, the NATS, I'm kinda confused about and the fuel sensor also.

I was told the same thing. So i got those top of the line ones, still did not fix it. Came to be Cylinder 6 misfire, was my number 6 piston rings were shot. B.c it went away when it was replaced. I'm good on inspection now.

So this might help the other guy who is having a misfire problem.
