Default va inspection

i live in richmond and was curious on the chances i would get snagged on inspection for not having a smog pump. the turbo kit for my camaro deletes the smog pump and all smog related things. if i tune it to clear the codes and no lights are on what do you guys think the chances are of me getting by and them not visibly checking it. or any ideas to hide to the fact its not on the car thanks guys

its a chance you got to take. Some places might say something, some may not. Id take it to a small garage if you want to make it less risky

I never once checked for a smog pump when I did state inspections.

Don't go to anywhere that regularly services Camaros and they prob won't notice. However, that great big hairdryer and all it's related tubes and pipes might raise an eyebrow from the get-go.

Most inspection places will not raise the hood.
