Default Emissions will not communicate with car

Hi everyone. I need some help. Been trying to get my car to pass emmisons in Virginia. Everytime I take it ( been 4 times ) the car sits there pass or fail. The mechanic told me to do s few things and drive it. I put 200 miles on it and still nothing. Tech also tells me Monitors won't set for the catalyst and the heated o2.
I have a super charger installed, meth kit, and corsa x pipe installed. East coast super charging die the install and tune. Going to call them Monday but has anyone had or heard of this issue? Also no check engine lights or anything like that is popping up. Thanks

Maybe those things were tuned out? Aren't you allowed 2 readiness codes to be unready?

Sounds like those codes were completely turned off with the tune.

I'm not sure. I will call the tuner this week and hopefully I can figure it out.
