I'm going to be moving to Houston in the next couple of months and I see Texas has emissions test so what all do they do? I currently have stock exhaust manifolds and an off road x pipe. Do I need to start looking for some converters?
I think AED can set your monitors to ready or N/A in the tune. I would contact them and see what they can do.
Will be the same del it is currently. Just puts your vin in the states system saying passed.
They are doing this to stop the forged stickers.
Will be the same inspection. Depending on the county depends on if they check emissions sensors. Nothing is changing, we are just loosing the inspection sticker itself.

Now you MUST have an inspection before you can register your vehicle.
Yea I'm not ok with that. The dude can ride shotgun.They are also required to drive the vehicle now to test the brakes. I got my car tested two weeks ago at a "mod" friendly shop and he had to drive it around the parking lot. Still passed but the driving part might be an issue for some.
Do nonfoulers like these work on these cars? I know people use them on older cars, but I haven't heard about anyone using them on a 2011+ car. Don't wanna derail the thread, just wondering if this is a realistic solution. We have the same thing here in NC, you can't register your car unless it passes emissions. How do people get passed off at some of these mod friendly shops if the inspection computer sends the test results results regardless of whether or not the car passes, correct me if I'm wrong but you can't be given the good to go unless the computer sees that the car passes. I understand people getting around the visual inspection, but not the OBD2 readiness.
