usually nothing happens. no one cares as long as you can prove you are not a resident of California and you are not abusing your vehicle registration rights by being a visitor.

people that register their cars out of state either 1) want to do whatever they want with their car, or 2) don't want to pay taxes.

most of the time, state police and local law enforcement don't care about federal law until it is convenient for them. lack of catalytic converter is not an issue unless the officer wants to brush up on federal laws and how to litigate them in a local court, only to realize the fine is paid to the federal government and not to local jurisdictions...
