Might be cheaper to dyno tune it ahhaha. I dont even know if that would work but a using up rev and having a smog map seems like good idea

Ay Brian you will pass if you put your stock cats back on.

You have a few options to pass.
put on your stock cats, go smog friendly shop, or go get an osiris tune and get a smog map too. If you need any help just pm me, and I'll help you out.

Im very surprised they let you pass Visual... I have HFC's pretty much what you have but headers. I pass at idle (the sniffer) but I will not pass when it is run on the dyno. The guy I used just said he couldn't bypass my 'traction control' and he just said it passed at idle and bypassed some of the test. Unfortunately I cannot say what shop this is.
Good luck though Brian.
