well a cat back is a whole exhaust from the catalitic converter back so are you asking if you can take off the muffler on the cat back or if you can just get away with taking off the stock muffler?

what? A catback is a full replacement exhaust from after the downpipe back. I think you mean you want to cut out the muffler and put a piece of straight pipe in? If so, look up muffler delete, lots of us have done it.
