Don't think it's a Rego issue. Might be an issue when you go for a roadworthy but you could easily stick the cat back on before hand. As far as emissions tests go you would have to be REALLY UNLUCKY to get done for this. Removing the 2nd Cat doesn't make your exhaust any louder (slightly deeper exhaust note maybe) so it won't attract any undue attention.
It is the cheapest exhaust mod you can do by far because it doesn't involve excessive labour time. $150 is a great price for this part. You could buy one from the US. Prices range from $120 - $200 but then you need to add $100 + for postage due to the weight + convert to Australian dollars which equates to around the $300 dollar mark delivered.
The midpipe on the 6 MPS is different to the 3.

in the past I have seen the mechanic doing the rego check stick some sort of probe up the tailpipe and I was certain I had read a "percentage CO" figure on the printout. Just checked with the mechanic who does my car and he tells me that "no, that isnt the case", not for rego checks anyway.
