If you just buy the CBE then yea you use your stock cats, thats why its called a "Cat-Back exhaust. The only time you would have to switch to pass emissions is if you remove the stock cats ans install Test Pipes. But even with Test Pipes the car will still pass an inspection as long as the CEL is not on. It could possibly fail a visual but thats only if they guy doing the inspection is real anal.
