Default Headers and legal questions

I bought some TSP headers and the TSP x pipe with bullet mufflers. My question can this ever be a legal set up in Texas by adding cats or is this a huge waste?

well i just added cats to mine cause it would pass a visual test, that and it was way to freaking loud but my suggestion would be to get your car inspected before you do it that way you get a year then change it back them reinstall that or just have them weld cats after the headers and not worry about it
