Change it back to stock....unless you know a smog testing station that will overlook the visual test....good luck

find someone who will pencil whip the test. Not illegal for you it is illegal for them to do it.

Do you know for sure you need a smog check to re-register it?....If so, I wouldn't chance taking it anywhere without cats...(I think that is a major bust/fine)....Maybe you can find a "friendly" place to smog it, but I wouldn't count on it....

Yes, in order to register your car from out of state, you must smog it. Sorry, but you're going to have to at the very least take off the headers and flash the tune back to stock.
