Its not like on older cars where you can put a piece of pipe in its place underneath, the cat on a 1.2 Sxi and others is right near the engine lodged in the manifold region, putting it nearer the engine makes it warm up faster.
Not even sure if new models have two cats like the Micras do, one on the manifold and one underneath.
Better off spending cash on a k&n element or an inlet / chamber like Dbilas or something.
