I'm assuming that you don't need a cat in your area, to pass a road worthiness test?
It is possible to remove the cats,there are 2 or 3 depending on spec. The pre-cat O2 sensors must remain in place, as the ECU uses the information for fuelling. The post-cat sensor can be removed and some kind of "fudge" put in it's place. However from my experience, these are hit and miss. An extender might work but also might not. An electronic solution might also work, but again, might not. The ECU is quite smart, and able to tell if the cat is there or not. In the long term, it's easier to replace a faulty cat with a factory replacement, or aftermarket alternative.

I had a Jetex performance cat on my ZS180 (same engine as V6 Freelander). It worked perfectly. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motor...etex-universal-high-flow-catalytic-converters

You won't know unless it clogs up. If it does that, just bash the guts out.
