It might just scrape through if the centre cat is in absolutely tip top nick and is got very hot immediately before the test, but its far more likely to fail.

I belive the lower limit for a pass with regards to exhaust emission is 0.25 l/m
My car has no cats at all and produced 2.5 l/m !!
As this data, (I am led to believe) is not recorded and sent to VOSA a Subaru friendly garage may turn a blind eye to a slightly higher reading than normal.

i always go to one very good garage.2 old boys.they use common sense when looking at my cars or bike however they do like to see a car pass the emmisions.i had to sit behind my legacy before with a rag stuffed next to the probe to get a good reading as the exhaust was quite large!they wouldnt stop until the machine passed it.my hands were burning like buggery!! lol.
