A better way to do it is to drill two holes small holes in the exhaust pipes on either side of the cat. With the engine idling put your hand over each hole and see if you can tell a difference in pressure, it should be fairly even, if it's pushing harder in the front hole (towards engine) it's clogged.
An aftermarket high-flow cat is about 60 bucks from summit racing.
