They eliminate the precats but the main cat can stay. You should be able to pass emissions though. Are you doing the install yourself ?

Cool, you will like the ZZ4. And it will sound great (loud) with the headers and flowmasters.

You should pass emissions, just be sure the engine is warmed up properly when you take the sniffer.

The TPIS LT's y-pipe is a direct bolt on to the cat in it's stock location. If you didn't buy that as well, you may want to think about it. It's a nice fit
