Passing inspection in NJ with high flow cat?
Hello everyone! I bought my '07 S2K last year, and it had a Berk high flow cat already on it. At the time I lived in a part of Virginia that didn't do emissions tests, so it was no big deal. The CEL would come on sporadically, but it was a P0420 (Catalyst Efficiency below threshold) so I just cleared it.
Last month I moved to NJ, and I'm taking the S2K in for inspection this week. I tried completing a drive cycle to help OK all the tests, but I still have a couple of incomplete checks but no CEL. What's the likelihood that I'll fail inspection, and is there anything I can do to help it pass without having to buy a new cat?
Thank you!

Looks like NJ farms the inspection out to private dealers. Maybe some NJ members have a preferred vendor?

What to Do If You Fail the Vehicle Inspection
If your car fails its emissions inspection, our certified ERT technicians will run a diagnostic on your vehicle to determine the cause of the issue and make the proper repairs. After completing your emissions repair facility paperwork, you will have up to one month from the last day of the month noted on the inspection sticker to bring your vehicle back for re-inspection with the repairs paperwork.
