Default Anyone running LT & ORY in western mass?

I'm thinking of getting LT & ORY this winter and spring. Anyone running one? I'm wondering if the smell is too bad to pass inspection around here and if it's annoying to you. Or if you are running a chatted Y to avoid issues. I'm figuring on doing the whole emission removal part as well when I do it and figuring on getting a mail order tune instead of getting it tuned by like slow hawk or something after all it'd be headers and a Ls6 intake I don't think that warrants a dyno tune. Thoughts?

I run lt's in my car in mass no problem. I had cats and magnaflow with full emissions hookup (air+egr). It wasnt to loud and no smell while driving. I also had slowhawk dyno tune well worth the extra money. Theses days for emissions you just plug in the obd2 and with tune it passes. My truck has same set up with no cats and no problems also.

I ran catless with LTs for years and never had any problems. Several other people in the same boat so as long as all your codes are tuned out it shouldn't prevent you from passing.

Pick whatever headers and exhaust you like for the most part and take it to a reputable tuner.

Cannot emphasize enough on having a hands on street/dyno tune over mail order.

I run them too, the tuning is a key ingredient for cutting down on the smell.
