yep just quick scan of the computer every two years and if you aren't throwing any trouble codes you're good.

Initial check and then every 2 years. And on newer cars like yours it's just checked through the computer, so if there's no codes you can run any exhaust

BeHe nailed it. As long as you're not throwing any CELs you'll pass emissions.

Though it also helps if you've "got a guy."

Correct me if I'm wrong, I believe NAS Pax River is in St. Mary's County, where I live, there is NO emissions testing. Your car will be required to pass the Maryland State Inspection, but that doesn't include emissions.

It's just a visual check though. They don't unbolt them.
