Default pulling npp plug will i fail emissions

I want to pull the NPP fuse for good. I have to get my emissions done within a month - Will it have any effect on me passing or not? If there is a question I will just wait til after emissions. Thanks

It has nothing to do with emissions. You will pass the tail pipe test and the OBD II plug-in test assuming the rest of the car is in working order.

Even if it did affect emissions, it takes at least seven and a half seconds to remove or install the fuse (including a beer break) on a slow day with one arm in a sling and a blindfold on.

. Don't worry about it, the baffles really only contribute a little bit of ponies (due to back pressure) and no impact on emissions. But as he said, just put the fuse back in if you're so concerned, lol
