So when I was running with my girl tonight I met someone on here.. I believe you said your name was Daniel but I forgot your forum name, doh! Just message me your Facebook email and I'll hook you up with the Facebook page man. Sorry I couldn't stay and chat longer - had to keep the heart rate up!

I posted this on the Evo FB page too and a guy said they plug into your OBD port. That's what's got me worried. I doubt Vegas laws are as strict as CA so I know I can pass a sniffer with my cat back in place but if they see modified maps within my ECU, then I'm ****ed. Any info or advice would be GREATLY appreciated!! Thanks!!!
If your car was registered out of state, the DMV will do a visual inspection of your car before you can get it registered. When you go for a smog they just plug into your OBD port.

No, they only verify vin and mileage and you will pass smog.
You are fine.

Youll pass smog with out a cat no problem. I pass just fine without a cat. Smog checks are very lazy out here, as long as you dont have have any errors on the odb2 youll be fine.

Hey guys and girls,

Just so you know, evom.net is doing the banner run with a mascot called Darwin the otter. Well, it's confirmed and we r gonna be the banner and Darwin's next host specifically for SEMA convention. Who else in here have SEMA pass so I won't be walking down the convention center all by myself holding an otter stuff toy? Haha! Well, I just want to get a group picture for evom.net. But if you want to join me walking in SEMA, we can do an EvoM Vegas crew invade SEMA! If I can get passes from the sponsor, I will let you guys and girls know as soon as possible.
