Hey guys. Im lookin for some help. Im probably gonna be moving to central pa from nj within the upcoming months. I was wondering if anybody can give me some help with inspections. I no in nj they have self inspection, does pa have that law? Also anybody live in the centre county that could possibly help me out with a good loal shop for inspection performance friendly possibly. I have a 08 f250 with a deleted 6.4. it still has the egr in it for now. I can still put the dpf/cat back in but would rather not. So if anybody can help me out i would greately appreciate it and im lookin foward to meetin up with u guys at meets and gettin to no everybody in the PA nation. Maybe i might see a couple of ur trucks out there when i go out there next week. Thanks -Matt.

Finally some more ppl from the nation in centre county! Where are you moving to and when? As far as inspection goes idk if I can help you out. There are some shops that I know that do me favors but thats only because I know them personally. I'm away from home for pretty much the summer but I can do some checking around to see what ppl would have to say about it. If youre gonna be around in the winter I was planning on heading down to beans to get my truck on the dyno at some point so if you'd be interested in that you're more than welcome to follow me down I may be trying to get a couple of my buds to go down as well.

You may wanna check in Bellefonte and State College for temp. places to stay if you're looking to be a little closer to your job. I never really had to worry about emissions on my OBS but yeah I'll do some checking around and see what I can find out. Haha yeah PA traffic/drivers aren't quite so angry!

Well they like their speeding tickets thats for sure. I wouldn't do anything over say 5-6 mph over the posted speed limit on the major highways. On I80 you can get away with 10 cuz the state boys are a little more forgiving but the local cops are douchebags.

No problem and when you get settled get at me maybe some pa guys could have a g2g at my camp or something!

PA doesn't do Emissions inspections on Diesel's. Just a standard yearly Inspection. Most shops do look to see if a Cat is in place, and around here they check for muffler's. I had to re-install my Cat and Muffler every year on my 6.0, What a pain!
