SMOG - any Subie-friendly place around San Mateo?
I searched and it seems like I should pass just fine. I have a stock d/p with both cats on the car, but I'm concerned with passing the visual. I have silicon i/c hoses (red) and a catless uppipe that might attract attention.
Based on what I've read here, 99% of the techs would not know what to look for as long as there is a cat visible under the car. But I would still like to avoid any potential issues, so looking any recommendations for a smog shop in the Peninsula - either subaru-friendly or simply with a tech who's not too **** about the visual part.
Thanks,
Alex

In case anyone cares =)
Smog Express at 1300 Old County Road in Belmont.
$55 w/o any coupons, super friendly and the whole thing took no more than 25 minutes. I think visual was limited to verifying that all the id numbers match up.
Btw. I forgot about the CEL mod in the downpipe censor - didn't cause any issues as well.
