So if the GM PCM is not actually passing along an EGR monitor as ready, and instead passing it along as N/A, won't it be an automatic fail because the emissions testing is expecting an EGR response because this is a FRS/BRZ, and not a GM vehicle per se.
Emissions monitors are agnostic to the platform and are SAE defined. This really gets into a grey area that you'll have to talk to your specific local testing centers. When the handheld scanner reads the monitors for a vehicle that isn't equipped with EGR reports it's EGR status it will report it as not applicable. Your testing center might look at you weird because the vehicle is supposed to have an EGR.
