Don't bother with the cat then, theirs a reason their up front. A cat needs to be as close as possible to the header/down pipe otherwise it doesn't get hot enough to do it's job. Hence the reason a cell pops up when their put too far back.
Plus over here if I did that it would be considered like not having a cat and instant ticket.

Im building a rally car and the sanctioning body requires a Cat on the exhaust. They have to be 'legal' since the transit between stages is on public roads. Having the cat on the end lets it be easily checked if it gets hit or crushed on the stage. It makes tech inspection a lot easier as they are supposed to check if it is a working cat and hasnt been gutted. As hard as I run my engine on stages it is better to have it a little back anyway so I dont melt it down. Having it at the end will also look pretty sweet glowing bright red

Im hoping I dont get a ticket for it, as it is my DD until I get it complete which wont be until late spring or summer of next year. the cost would just slow down the progress of my build

I just ordered both the OBX exhaust system as well as the blox, so I'll let ya'll know how it goes once it gets here.
