It should at the moment but they are talking about altering how the vehicle is checked for cats and particulate filters in the future. But with older vehicles like yours i cant see how they could tell the vehicle has no cat by plugging into a diag. Newer vehicles yes but yours no.

Now if you should be removing the cat is a different story - how many ponies do you expect to release by removing it?
