You need to read up more. If you would have used the search function, you would have your answer by now.

But to answer your question: Yes, a header will eliminate the catalytic converter.


:EDIT:

Holy shit that highflow cat is expensive!

Heck yeah it is! You can get a DC Race Header for less than what that highflow cat costs. A good rule of thumb... don't trust power gains quoted in the company advertisements farther than you can throw them... more often than not, they are grossly overstated.

We sell that cat for $370 shipped if you decide to go this route. It is a RT high flow cat, bolt on unit, a 300 cell cat. And we have them in stock.
