I need to smog the Formula before April. It is pretty much stock, except I changed the filter (Holley) and Lid (LS1 Motorsports). I did the exhaust. I just took out the muffler and put a "Y" Pipe in the back, so I'm running with no muffler. Will my car pass "as is"?

I'm really not to worried. If I had to I guess I could put the Stock lid and filter back in. But I think I'm good.

There are tons of people who have more mods then me, and they must pass. Right? Ha Ha. Why am I trippen?

None of those mods will significantly impact the emissions sniffer results. Just make sure all the hoses to the air cleaner ducting are properly in place. Where you are in CA may be particular about having E.O. #'s on things, so I dunno if your lid will be okay.

not in cali :no:

like matthew said, as long as you have all your oem emissions equiment (air/egr) and cats and there in working order and you have cats you should pass the sniffer.
