Default DMV smog ref (HELP PLEASE!!!)

So i have a 1990 dx hatch
with a b16a swap
chipped ecu
aftermarket header and intake

i got attacked by cops when i pulled up to a local starbucks.
i parked and turn off my engine, then the cop approached me and poped my hood to see what i had under the hood! (*** RAPE!)

I am now subjected to go to State Ref.

Currently i know i gotta put back;
Stock ECU
Stock Intake
Stock header
Clean up my wiring

any other suggestions on what i should do or need to do to pass my engine at state ref.

Also if you have
stock b series header with heatshield,
or a stock JDM b16 ecu
let me know, i'll probably be intrested in buying it if you are local.

Here is a picture of the engine bay

There are only two solutions available if you want to keep the car.

One is to convert it back to stock.

The other is to convert it to 94 Del Sol specifications and then get it certified. This means that you will have to convert it to OBD1.

Yeah, spend the cash to convert it to OBD-1 Homie - You'll be set or you can go through and swap your old motor back in. Their both hassles but hey..I would go with the OBD conversion. You'll be patting yourself on the back in the future.
