Removing a cat is illegal in any state. If you get the one set of cats you've got left good and hot maybe you'll pass the tail pipe test. Make sure the car is well warmed up before going in for your smog appointment.

On the visual inspection it depends on the smog station. I recently took my CRX race car in to see if it would pass visual. The smog station pulled out a big book which told them everything to look for on my car. If you go to a shop that's anal and checks, then you'll be screwed. When I smog my Boxster though they don't look underneath it and they don't even ask to look at the engine.
