Default if i keep my air but dont have cats will it hurt anything?

i have to get longtubes with air fittings in case this shi*** county decides to have emmissions like the county thats half a mile from my house. so i was wondering if i keep air and hook it up to the longtubes but lets say i run true duals with no cats will this hurt anything?

Are you doing this for appearance reasons?

No, but why keep them if you delete the cats? If they do a visual inspection, they will check for cats.

Won't hurt a thing. I kept the AIR system on my WS6 for years after I pulled the cats and it was fine. The headers I wanted weren't avaliable without AIR, and I didn't like the look of the tubes coming off the headers into just a block-off plate so I just left the whole system intact and operational. Won't cause any issues at all.

you could keep it on, or you could take it off and if yall get emmissions, simply put AIR back on
