Default emissions

i just wanted to know if i can pass emissions with the predator tune, it is just the tune that came with the predator, will they know the ecu or whatever was altered or will it just read normally on thier computer? i live in georgia if that helps. im figuring all the odb11 test does is check for codes and run cycles but i just wanted to make sure before i go waiste my time. thanks

In St. Louis, MO, you'll pass emissions as long as your "check engine light" isn't on. I'm not sure how it is where you live though. I would check out the local emissions website, and see what the do to your car. That way you'll know what you need to do to pass.
