Cat deletes from RV6

Hello all,
Wondering if there is a "fix" or a "cheat" or anything that will cause the cat deletes (or the exhaust system intself) from RV6 to pass smog? I am in NH-and we have CEL based inspections (no tailpipe probes yet), and I would love to be able to use these de;lets.
THANKS for any help!!

Look up o2 (sensor) simulator / spacer / whatever else they want to call them. It's a little 'in-between' spacer that you thread your downstream o2 sensors into and then you thread those into your exhaust system. They pull the sensors out of the direct exhaust path and expose the sensor to a smaller / metered amount of exhaust fumes. They should make the light go away -but- in the event your cats decrease in efficiency or somehow they break down and start to clog you won't have the light to let you know.

Just make sure you only do that to the SECONDARY O2 sensors. Never to the primary.

L-shaped spacers work best.

I know you can’t buy the PCDs right now, but when I got them they came with defoulers which tricked the car to prevent the CEL.
