yeah, put the cat back on, and i'm 99.999% you'll pass. You can leave the tip, it won't affect anything.

any other mods?

System rich is what your car does when the front o2 sensor takes a dump. It's a safety setting so you don't go lean.

That will set your emissions bank 1 as not ready and you will fail.
