Yet another HP ?, wait it's different

I read several threads on the HP header and I did not see this question asked or answered. The thing is, I live in an emission county (which sucks) and I am looking for a loop hole. I was wondering if I could get the shorty HP header and a few years from now get the downpipe w/ hi-flow cat. I was reading the emission laws and they stated that a vehicle is not to have an aftermarket cat unless the vehicle is at least 5 years old. Since I have heard of people passing the actual emissions test with this header (just not the visual test), would I be able to get away with when my car is a few years older. My other option is to just remove it once a year during emission test time. What do you guys think.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]
