Not a good idea.

Doesn't add any performance, might rattle, and adds pollution.

Better to replace with a high-flow cat.

mmmhmm... says the old domestic enthusiast who has probably done way more than his fair share of burnouts in his lifetime. i recall seeing air that i'm breathing from exhaust emissions, not from burning rubber. but the cool thing about southern california is just that, you can see what you're breathing. where else in the world can you do that?

edit: my plane leaves for phoenix in just under 9 hours. who needs to be shown how to drive their 240?

It's a waste of time. Get a test pipe.

But don't even bother doing anything unless you have a full aftermarket exhaust. The gains aren't amazing.. it's more for throttle response.
