Good luck, sometimes works, sometimes doesnt
Rag it there often helps, heard putting news paper in the airbox works as well

As long as the emisions are at the correct level you will be ok. Don't think having a cat is part of the mot check.

My mot cost £25. Then you have a magic donor car to test "My emission problem"
Then another £10 later... Jobs a good-un

Just make sure that the engine is hot when getting tested so give it a good rag on the way there

To pass MOT it doesnt have to be there
however
If the emissions are too high then it will fail
What engine size and age is your car ?
