Moving to PA: OEM exhaust for smog?

Moving to the Allentown/Bethlehem shortly and will need to pass smog. Does anyone have a OEM exhaust setup I can rent or purchase? Advice/guidance would be greatly appreciated too.

Thanks

Evolve automotive valved set up. It has only 2 high flow 200 cel cats. Your non-oem set up passes smog? What is your set up?

I could be mistaken, but my understanding is PA requires 4 out of 5 emissions Readiness and something that looks vaguely like a catalytic converter for visual inspection.

My 128i has the primaries removed and will pass.

anything newer than 99 or 2000 has can have 1 monitor not set, and yes visually cats need to be there, some places dont care or dont even look. or im sure you could get creative to make it look like they are there

Refreshing this emissions inspection thread for a future move. Looked at the PA DMV website and saw a long list of requirements and test procedures. I have test pipes, no resonator, secondary cats, factory muffler and the associated BPM Sport tune. Anyone have a similar setup and passed inspection?
