pacesetter mids are really shorties....

anyways, you can only go shorties or nothing at all if you don't want to move the stock cat locations as LT's and "Mids" will do just that

it all depends on how anil the smog guy is, ifthey over look visual, then a LT and catted Y pipe will pass no problem, it just depends on how anil your smog guy is.

Even if the headers don't move the cats, they still need a CARB number or else they are illegal.

NO! Mac mids move the cats therefore they are not emissions legal and do not have a carb# and you can't pass Cali emissions w/them.
