i live in CA so i know how ya feel. sucks major! but im going to say that passing the test with gutted cats is probably not possible (i could be wrong). i too want to gutt my cats to increase the flow, but am unsure if i want to have to deal with the hassle.

I just took the emissions test here in Maryland last week. I have my Macs with the offroad ypipe, and failed every section of the test. I thought that the car had a chance with a sniffer test, but they no longer use that test here, the car had to go on a dynometer. They run it up to like 50mph on the dynometer to simulate street driving.
