Default will true duals with lt headers pass inspec?

I want my car to pass inspection and i was wondering if putting paceseter lt's and a true dualsetup would pass inspection? if not is there any way i could make it? And would it still add good performance or not be worth the money? thanks

I have the same set up and I had to go to 6 or 7 different shops before I pulled into one that didn't even think to look under the car. 15 mins later I had new tags and was out of there. All of the other ones would start the inspection which meant to get in, start the car, rev it, (4 out of 6 times kill it taking off) and then bring it back and say, "Did you know you didn't have any cats on your car?" I never had to pay though, because they didn't actually start any testing. The only pay other than the last inspection was the freakin gas driving around town, and the ticket for exp. inspection. Get it inspected and then put the true duals on. You'll have at least a year of not worrying about it.

Mine passed 2-3 years or so ago, lol, last time I took it. The guy never looked under the car, it's been tuned so no codes are thrown...he just plugged into the port for a few min. & then took it out to check the brakes, horn, & lights, tested the seal on the gas cap & then gave me my sticker.

Edit: No true duals, but it's not different really since I don't have cats....that's the kicker. I have LT's & ORY.

What kind of performance gains would i have doing say a legal slp LM1 with headers vs the true duals? just curious, also will it kill gas mileage?
