Mark,
The Prodrive downpipe is worth quite a few bob to destroy it!!
Sell it off and put on a decat downpipe - you're likely to make a profit doing it that way as well.
PS If you do sell it then drop me a line as I'll have it

Anything's possible if you try hard enough, and I suppose it'd be possible to get the cat out of the pipe if you were prepared to put enough time and effort into it.

However, as Nick says, if you're determined to go down this route, fitting a cat-free downpipe would be by far the easier option. However, you will instantly invalidate your warranty, which is something that may be important, both if something goes wrong, or indeed if you come to sell the car within the normal three year warranty period.

If your worried about getting any faster from A to B but keeping your warranty then perhaps (and don't take it the wrong way please!) spend a days tuition with one of the fast driving tutors that advertise in Evo mag.
Otherwise I guess the next step with the car is to turn it into a T25, Wr1 etc, but that also leads to a loss of warranty.
