If there is a sniffer requirement in the county you're registered in, then your car will fail. The downpipe install only takes an hour, so just keep your stock downpipe for inspections.

As long as the cel is off and the battery hasn't been disconected recently it should pass.
But keep in mind they have to pick the car up to do the safety part of the inspection. If they notice it has no cat they will fail you.
