Will it pass MOT emissions testing if the cats are removed?!

Possibly a silly question but will an RS6 pass its emission test on its MOT if the cats are removed? Was chatting to some of the B5 RS4 a few days ago and one chap has removed all the cats on his exhaust system and it still passed its MOT! I come from Rover V8-powered TVRs and wondered if I could get some of that rolling thunder back by removing the cats on the RS6. Has anyone on here tried this? Will it pass its MOT? Should I just get a Milltek system + be done with it?! Grateful for your comments.

milltek all the way. Dude, it'll Def fail if cats removed esp with the huge carbon footprint it has

another option if you dont want to go to the expense of milltek....I had the pre cats gutted and a set of 100 cell cats fitted (+ new flexi pipes) noticeable increase in performance, looks like a stock system, no significant change to in car noise (wife hasn't noticed!) and only £500
the car had an MOT last week with new set up and passed without any problems....
PS I'm not in the trade / associated - just a happy customer...
