Besides it being illegal and a waste of precious metals? probably not, as long as you don't care that you're destroying the environment with oxides of nitrogen.

Sell it, take the money you just got and buy a mid-pipe.

Hollowing out a cat would definitely be considered as animal cruelty. You could get sent to prison for it. So I suggest you don't do it.

buy a straight pipe. you can sell the cat to a junkyard and make your money back, and then some probably.

You can remover the rear part of the cat to make it flow higher.

Do a search.

I had no idea. But do they buy them if they are clogged? My hiflow cat is at the end of it's usefulness and am having a race pipe made, didn't know what to do with the old one.
