when he does the down pipe is he going to take out the cat

It'll just be all noise on a stock car if he replaces ONLY the downpipe.

I'd suggest replacing the "O2 housing" as well as the downpipe, and add in a highflow cat. It's not worth the 3-4HP gian of running without a cat vs gettign caught without one and paying the fines, fixing and having the car inspected, for not having it.

Where I am from there is no emissions testing for months I got away with running headers and pipes straight out the back (no mufflers/cats) on my Nova (V8). Just a cat and resonator is all the Srt-4 Neons have for an exhaust.

He can put a downpipe on it but if he gets rid of his cat it may throw a code stage 1 would take the code away.
