Test pipes can be had so inexpensively it may not even be worth the effort to gut them. Any slight fitment issues will get resolved when the X-pipe is cut to add cats.

Yeah for us they can. He lives in Australia where he would need to pay for shipping and import taxes.

I wouldnt worry about resonated test pipes as the mid pipe cats will take out the rasp.
