the cat is in the downpipe that bolts to the mainfold its in 1 piece the goes right back to the mid section imo theres no point in de-cating a 1.0 your prob not gain any power more likely lose some

i doubt you will get one 'off the shelf' for the 1.0.... take the pipe off and cut the cat out and weld in a pipe in its place... you will need to do some bodging to get the lambda sensor back on though...

i personally wouldnt do it with that particular engine...
