Practically speaking, its more about the criteria for passing NY state automobile inspection in your region, Long Island.

What do level of inspection for original equipment, if any, will be conducted on your car annually?

You can either leave the pipes there or take them off the car.

Take them all off and crimp the pipe where it goes into the manifold.
