Default SMOG question

Wuddup guys I currently moved to Las vegas from Hawaii (no emission laws there) and I need some help regarding smog. So first off I have a 99 EX bone stock except for RDX injectors, turbo kit, and a chipped ecu. I recently paid about $200 for smog (under the table) because I needed to get my car registered ASAP. But I was wondering if you guys know of ways I would be able to pass a smog test legally here. From what I am told by many friends they do not do a visual test so as long as my car can be hooked up and it reads a obd2 computer with no codes then I should be able to pass. I have friends who have the same car but with K swaps and they pass with no problem at all. Any help would be nice and highly appreciated because I am totally new to all this emissions stuff. THANK YOU and Mahalos!

lol, funny but true.

the only other way around it would be to install the stock ecu and stock injectors, and never touch any amount of boost.
of if you have an external wastegate, if the dump is circulated back into the exhaust, just remove the wastegate spring as well so it can't spool at all. that'll save the turbo from any damage, and will make the stock ecu like the tps readings
