   I think the cats in the mani on the MK2 Saxos and a silencer underneath? its a new mani job im afraid or take it apart and rip it out.

   1.1 Mk2 engines dont have a silencer so no worries there
   
   Cat is in the downpipe, you can remove the element from the pipe or you can convert to a Mk1 manifold & down pipe set up. you will need to re-locate the oil filter to do it.
   
   Other option is like you said, got for an aftermarkt manifold
