NC - Annual inspection / emissions controls

Does anybody in NC, particularly in the Raleigh area have any advice with regards to aftermarket exhaust parts and annual inspection?

Do most of you swap on factory parts for inspection? Or just leave aftermarket parts installed and hope for the best?

Particularly interested in hearing from people with HFC front pipes, catless front pipes and/or catless headers.

Does the annual inspection include visual inspection for the existence of factory cats? Do they know how many are supposed to be there, do they know the difference between factory and high-flow aftermarket? What are the consequences for failure due to modification?

Any inspection centers that are particularly lax or particularly stringent?
