Except for being a Synth artifact creature in addition to its other types, Synth Infiltrator copies exactly what was printed on the original creature and nothing else (unless that creature is copying something else or is a token; see below). It doesn’t copy whether that creature is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, and so on.

You can choose not to have Synth Infiltrator enter the battlefield as a copy of another creature. If you do, it will probably die due to having 0 toughness. (This is probably not the kind of innovation the Institute would approve of.)
