Default Which cats flow good and keep the SES light off?

I just moved to the Fort Worth area and need to get my truck registered and tagged. I don't have cats on it and I need to put some on it to pass inspection.
Thanks.

Why not have the rear 02s turned off in the tune? That will eliminate the check engine light and still pass the diagnostic test for state inspection.
Is it not tuned?

No, It's not tuned yet.
I was weighing my options to figure out whats best.
I want to have it tuned, but also want to be certain it will pass inspection.

Who in the Fort Worth area does tuning?
Where are the inspection shops that will pass an inspection without
looking or sniffing for cats?
Thanks.

they are supposed to do a visual check for converters, but nobody does. they just plug in the OBD2 port, put a vacuum on the gas cap, check safety/lights/wipers and as long you dont throw any codes they slap a sticker on.

i've had mine inspected with catless longtubes and my cutout open.
