If this is a must for you to get your car running right temporarily until you can figure out what to do you can cut it off and clamp some flex pipe on in it's place. It won't last long at all but I've done this on a tercel, paseo, corolla, chevy celebrity and an s-10. It's pretty straight forward but remember that flex pipe doesn't last long at all.

I think I'm getting confused, it seems there are two different posters asking different questions. It is super illegal for the shop to remove your cat. So is smoking weed but that doesn't stop people either, there are ways around everything just think outside the box.

My car runs fine, I just want a header. This is what I'd like to be done.

1.) receive header in mail
2.) take header to shop, have them custom make me a test pipe with flanges on both sides so it bolts onto the exhaust and downpipe no problem
3.) later when I'm not so strapped for cash, buy a good cat so I don't need to worry about inspections.
