Put a few gallons of 103 octane gas in with your regular gas and run the piss out of it right before you take it to them. You could run some stuff called SEAFOAM thru before then. Just run the tank down after you put the stuff in and it will clean everything the fuel touches. My brother put it in a used motorcycle he bought and carbon was flying out of the exhuast pipe when he reved, just to show it works. Good luck

Emissions trauma
 
Don't panic. The cats should get you through but a tune-up is a good idea if it needs it, otherwise just adjust the timing to stock (10 degrees), clean your K&N or replace the paper filter - whichever applies and make sure the plugs are clean, the EGR and PCV are operative and the engine is nice and warm when testing.

The additional RPM's won't hurt you a bit. Might even help.
