    Just stopped by a shell and the tech told me I would fail because he couldn't see my cats. Darn lowered cars with packed engine bays. I'm sure they're in there, no CELs in readiness.

    Anybody know of some friendly places in the Stamford area? PMs work.

    If you find a place let me know. I'm in the same boat right now except I really don't have cats lol. I used to see your car getting on 95 all the time in the morning btw.

    In CT they're required to do a visual inspection for cats, but aside from that it's entirely computerized through the OBDII port. A mod-friendly place might be able to help with the visual piece, but if your O2 sensors and other sensors aren't showing readiness there's no way to fake it unfortunately.
