You can put the cats back on anytime you want as long as its there for the test. Hopefully they arent too dirty and your o2 sensors are still good. You have a sniffer or just a visual? I forget what year gets what and where. Im lucky, my 93 is just a visual here in PA.

put the stock h pipe back on anytime before you head in for the test.

be sure to run the car hard before you head in so the cats are hot. they are more efficient when they are hot.
