I'm not familiar with your state inspection laws... but do you really NEED a cat?

Pull it off and see whats rattling.

Cats are cheap.. like $45 after shipping, not really an excuse not to run one.

Rattling cat is a sign that it needs to be replaced. If I were you I would replace ASAP so you don't start a fire under your XJ.
