Why not just put on an ORY pipe instead and keep the cats incase of emmision problems. Just put the catted Y back on then.

the easiest way to gut the cats would be to put a scewdriver in the opening and get a hammer and bang the screwdriver a black powder substance will come out. The ses light will come on.

Get the off road pipes or a ory, if you ever have to buy cats for any reason they will be ALOT more than the ory or pipes would be. I bought them for my other 02 and when I traded the car the dealer had to have the cats installed, 30 minutes later I was done .
