IMHO, there is no need to "remove" it. The B-fly will fail open, that is to say if you remove the cables it will spring open. I found this when I replaced my exhaust. You can cut them or detatch them at the b- fly motor under the seat.
As far as the catalyst, I would say leave it. It is a bit of work to get it out. Pain in the ass. I would either leave it or buy the non-catalyst pipe from Arrow and install that. Also, if you do so, you should get a Power Commander or similar because you will run rich >5k and get a lot of pop and such.
You can see what all you have to remove for the catalyst in this pic. Rear set, heat shields etc.
