Default Mot & straight through exhaust

Guys,
Just bought another scooby, STI 4, it has a scooby sport center and back box and a group A downpipe. Also from scooby sport I think, will this pass its emissions test ? It has previously, but I think the guy got a dodgy MOT center to do it or he new the bloke ? It sounds lovely ! but fear it will fail any ideas ?

If the car has NO CATS then it's not got a chance in hell of passing an emmissions test.

The only way to pass is to find a friendy tester who will turn a blind eye (not recommended as it's illegal) OR fit a catted centre and it should pass with that alone.

I know of one car that had a OE catted centre just stuck on the end of the talepipe and it passed. Saved having to spend 10 mins removing and refitting the centre.
