Exhaust System Inspection

I think in Jersey they check emissions every 2 yrs. I get inspected this December, so after that I will do some exhaust upgrades and be ready for the summer, ha ha. should I replace the cat with a performance job? My A-hole friend said he could clean my engine, but after he did it needed to be dried so he revved the engine to a point where I saw the cat get red hot. I mean it turned red. Do you think that ruined it. (I will never let this person near my car again) I got everything back in order and it runs great again idling at about 800 and taching out at about 3500. Any suggestions on exhaust upgrades. If you install a header do you keep that heat shield on? Thanks in advance.
