1st of all for your car is it only an visual inspection, or does it include s sniffer?
as me being in HI if they by chance they look to see if you have one.
there are lots of quality, hi flow cats. on the market.
or you can take a or a pair of cats and cut them up and weld them around your exhaust for the look. just take your time so they look factory. (I have a tendency to hurry ant the end)

California requires working, functioning cats, so no hollow cats or shells welded to pipes.

There is a visual test and a sniffer test.
