yea ive heard of people doing that, it will take away the rasp. what we did for mine was we cut off about 2 inches off of the driver side cat, then welded the end part of the y-pipe to it, and then clamped that onto the header and it fit perfectly in that little groove there. for the passenger side there is a little more room to play around with
