I just don't want to spend all that money on a part of my exhaust just to hear I have to take it off...someone, anyone, please help with this question...

You have to check the emissions restrictions in the area your car is registered in (your state/county). An out of district agency cannot enforce their restrictions on you if your car is registered out of state/county.

I live in Adams Co. PA which does not have emissions restrictions, so I had LTH's and drove through MD and VA pretty regularly and they can't do anything about it. Also had a radar detector too

Edit: I got more complaints from the whiney mofo's driving behind me on cruises than I did from LEO's

Easiest thing to do is to either go HFC's or RTPs, and save your stock cats. That way, if you do have to do inspections, or get popped, you just switch them back in and get checked. After you pass, swap them back.
