Better yet, plug it up and refit the compensator so it visually passes inspection seeming you are subject to Cali emissions. This will not affect emissions readings and they will be hard pressed to simulate 4,000 ft altitudes in a workshop!
*edit - just found out Modesto is a nose-bleeding 27m above sea level lol.
