Yeah just retard your timing and if you have an adjustable fuel pressure regulator turn the fuel pressure down. Also check your air filter and throttle body. I have to go for emissions by the 22nd of this month in Maryland. Oh yeah drive your car around before you go and do not turn it off while waiting to be tested. Keep it at operating temp.
