keep the cats, and go stainless back from there. ECU does not need any adjustment  :y

Highly unlikely that it could get through the mot emissions test without cats. Also, it seems that from next year if a car left the factory with cats it will have to have them fitted for the MOT test, even if it passes emissions test.
So, as Tunnie says, leave the cats on. :y
