Is it not possible to fit a decat/sport car to a standard cat back exhaust ?

Yes this is what i am doing to achieve stage 2. You may need a reducer dependent on which you go for though, Mine is a true 3 inch down-pipe with a reducer section to fit straight onto the stock exhaust.

Just do the resonator delete and you'll be set.

Large downpipe and cat with OEM cat back. FTW.
