emissions testing ?'s

i live in tn and they are starting emissions testing
i have hollowed out the oem catalitic (sp?) converter, visually it looks like it is still the stock cat. and the only other mod i have is a weapon-r intake do i have a chance at passing?
are there any little things i can do that will help he lower the emissons from the car before i test
any help or personal experiences will help -- thanx

if its anything like ny youre gonna need to have a a functional cat (probably). they hook up a computer to your OBD2 not sniff the exhaust, so if there computer isn't throwing codes you should be ok.

A little "off topic" question, about Georgia emissions:
a passing smog test lasts for one year, right? So, if you
got last year's two months late, and paid the late fee, it
should still be good for this year, if you pay on time,
right?

ive heard putting grain alcohol in your gas tank will help you pass. but please dont take my word for it. wait for someone else on this board to agree with me. i wouldnt want you fucking up your car on my account.
