Nj/carb states Inspection with Awe mid pipe/resonator delete?

So the dreaded inspection deadline is impending and about a month after my last one I installed the AWE midpipe and muffler. Anyone with experience know if this non-carb legal (without a resonator) midpipe will pass? I am bm3 stage 1 and will go through the drive cycle after flashing to stock. Cats are completely stock. If the resonators do not pass I am out of luck as I've sold my stock exhaust years ago. I am aware there are threads regarding this exact issue but they weren't applicable to CARB guidelines which NJ unfortunately follows. Thanks for the help.

I have heard people be failed for a missing secondary (and unmonitored) cat, but not a resonator.

I live in NJ and pass no problems at DMV with stock cat and full AWE exhaust (unresonated mid-pipe with touring edition muffler). I flash back to stock before hand as well.
