does your state have smog test stations? if so, yes, you will fail the test.

They just test the emissions at the service station I don't think they have smog test stations.

that's probably the same thing, in caifornia they call it a "smog test."

do they put a sensor on the tailpipe? there's no way you'll pass w/o cats if so. if they don't then they probably do just a visual inspection, but even then when dude doesn't see the cats, he'll fail you unless he's a pos who accepts bribes.

When I had emissions done last year I watched them plug into the dianostics port for the test.

They didn't put probes in the tailpipes. The guy told me that if your is newer the only thing they do is plug it in.
