Can't replace the Cat with a test pipe, our cat is welded to the down pipe (EX model). But you can replace the entire down pipe, but that would be a little expensive.

You can remove the cat, but you'll be removing the cat AND downpipe together because they are welded together. So if you wanted a test pipe, it would be the length of your down pipe and catalytic convertor which is rougly 4ft.
