You can weld a bung into a straight pipe for the pre-cat sensor, sure. You might get a CEL for failed cat, and the fix for that is to cheat the rear sensor with a couple of spark plug anti-foulers -- search the forum for instructions.

i have a magnaflow highflow cat forsale. its brandnew and has never been used. comes with the warranty card and everything! im looking to get 80 shipped for it. let me know. its 2.5" single in/out, so it will weld/clamp right up to where the stock cat goes.
