LBZ: Emissions time...
- Thread starter D-MAX Mafia
- Start date
I heard they do an under hood inspection too. But how educated on diesels are they? I bet 50% of duramax owners dont even know where the EGR is or that they have one. We'll see what happens Monday.

I did mine earlier this year in ca and he knew what an egr was and even checked for a blocker plate
Some do, I've heard of it. Its not an emissions requirement but maybe a local law requirement. They just need to do what they are told.
I took mine through a couple weeks ago running a 500hp tune and passed. Granted my truck didn't come with a cat or an egr. I've also had it tested twice in the past with no muffler.
Most plates I've seen, at least for the lb7's have a little piece sticking up for you to hold onto to put it in or take it out. That is what he was looking for, all visual check. As thorough as he was, he never bothered to look under the truck for the cat.
Here in vegas they look at the cat and the pcv.... not once have they checked or bothered asking about egr.....wtf
I got bitched at for no egr or cat. After having to show the retared and his boss that federal emissioned trucks do not come factory that way, lo and behold i passed. Oh and my opacity was 20% on a race tune. I only pushed the throttle just enough to hit 4k (nuetral rev limiter) so it never smoked. Cant wait to see what they say with the twins on it next year
Up here its just safety stuff, lights and brakes etc. They hook up to the OBDII port and just check from and SES lights. If you dont have any, good to go.
Glad they don't do emissions here in MN. You have to have a muffler though. I spent 20 minutes on the side of the highway 4th of July with a state trooper as she combed over my truck. Bumper height... had to get out and show her where the muffler was on my 5" MBRP exhaust... if only she could see what the inside looks like :rofl: She didn't pick up on the windshield tint or no front plate though somehow.
