Theres a few options available;

de-baffle the backbox, also taking out the honeycomb tube going through it

Empty out the silencer

Decat

new back box

Or mix and match some of the above lol, are you happy with the way it looks?
Also its easy to do, anyone handy with a welder and disk cutter of some sort could do it

Its not the cat its the fact that without it emissions will be above MOT standard, its always a gamble removing silencers.
