Move to a state where they don't have emission controls and never place your car on the roller to check gas emissions. All they check down here is blinkers, wipers, and horn.

new plugs, change oil, put that stock header back on, and keep your car really warmed up for the sniffer test. aftermarket headers usually dont heat the cat up enough.
