RE: Cat gutting
If you must do something with the cat then i would do as cereal said and pound a pipe threw it and not gut it. If you don't need the appearence of the cat on there at all just replace it with a piece of straight pipe for awhile and see if it actually does anything for you. Then if you don't really care you can either put the cat back on or just leave it that way. I wouldn't destroy a perfectly good hi flow cat.
