Test pipe or cat.?
What should I do? Get a 2.5in cat or a 2.5in test pipe. I'm just kinda stuck on this one because I know that if I dont have a cat I can get fined for it. But then again, who ever looks under the car?

Get a cat. If you have the usual bolt-on's you won't see any real gains from a straight pipe. Plus, you won't have to worry about getting pegged for not having the cat. Get the cat.
if you dont care about smoggin and want to save some money then a strightpipe, but if you have the cash then get a hi-flo cat, from what i hear they'll goth give you comparable gains unless you go turbo or do major work to the engine.
