If you have an OBD2 car, ('96 or later) all the monitors are set, and there's no CEL, then it should pass. There's no visual inspection on OBD2 cars, so if there's no cat, but the car's computer doesn't know that (i.e. catless reflash) then you won't have a problem.

J, my Borlas cause the CEL to go on and off periodically, and I pretty much just smog it when it's OFF. No problem. I'm not sure how they affect the newer 2.5's, but it's not a huge deal with mine.
