Is there a way to remove the cat converter from the stock pipe?

I've an after market full system already, but prefer the ride with the stock pipe as it's a nicer feel. Am interested in experimenting with various things though, and would be interested in how to remove the cat, if possible. And the likely affects. I would also reset the ECU if it was removed to counter any increase in airflow.

might be interesting to see the effects of that on the Stock...
just wish it looked like a normal exhaust and not like its currect ungliest ever seen shape...

I think your only hope would be from the inlet side if you can smash it out without knocking a bunch into the muffler where it would rattle. I believe the outlet pipe is not in the same line as the inlet which holds the cat.
