Put your std muffler on that will fix the noise issue if you are worried about exhauts noise.
Put your std blow off valve for the inspection.
Problem solvered for the pits.

If I still had them that might be an option

As you don't actually have a yellow sticker, just getting an inspection, do they have the power to put your car off the road, i.e. give you a canary when you have come in of your own accord???????

Only if its a shitta. Even if some things are illegal, they will only warn you. If its cleary dangerous, they will give you yellow love (as they should too!)

No pits will pass a loudish BOV. They hate em... Exhaust can go either way. Last three times i've passed with a much louder exhaust and no cats (or even shells!) and this time i tried to make it quiet and put cats et al back in and they reckon its still too loud!

Also go in the morning, as early as possible to avoid 3hr lines. Tomorrow i am going at 8am.. I went past the pits at warwick today and the line at midday was at least 40 cars (although only 3 had yellows).

I've always gone to Warwick. I guess it all depends on the bloke you get. Some make a major fuss of the tiniest issue while others are a bit more laid back.

Ring back HBF- you might get a different response from a different person. I wouldn't disclose the ecu either, as it's still the factory unit.
