Sure can. If it's catless it will sound like pure doo doo though. I have a header, gutted cat and stock exhaust. It's hollow sounding and really buzzy. Sounds like ass.

You'll need a different exhaust. The dynomax super turbo muffler sounds pretty good. Whatever you do, make sure you either have a catalytic converter, or resonator, or both. Catless with no resonator sounds way too raspy.

It will work but it will sound like someone farting. You could pick up a dynomax super turbo for 40 bucks then pay a muffler shop 20-30 to install it.

No dude, the stock resonator doesn't affect the shitty sound of the stock exhaust with no cat. If you have already replaced the factory muffler (which is the culprit of shitty sound when using no cat), you're fine. Although, I'm sure an aftermarket resonator will flow better than the stock one, but I may be completely wrong...I've never looked through a stock resonator.
