Hi there, welcome

I'm looking in the parts catalogue, I can't actually find your engine but it looks like the 1.9 was available without a cat so you should be able to get a front pipe without. I'm not sure if any jiggery-pokery is needed doing to the engine management, I doubt it, but it's probably worth waiting for someone that's actually had some experience to come along

Hi there im no help technically im afraid, just wanted to welcome you in to the club.

Hello and welcome. I have had mine de-catted and it cost me about £60 for someone to chop out the cat and weld in a piece of pipe. Mine had rotted at the front of the cat and was struggling finding a replacement

take the eisting cat off and knock the guts out with a hammer and metal bar / chisel. I did mine like that on the scoob and its cheap (free) and easy, unless you want to refit the cat at mot time....it wont pass emissions in a million years without it mate.

Should pass the mot without the cat if its diesel.

Hi thanks for all your reply's might cut it out and weld a pipe in.

would anybody no if the 405 td front pipe fits?
