Skin the Cat?

Ok, I'll try this section, no response from SD/HD section. Is there any advantage to removing the cat from my exhaust? I am fortunate to live in an area that does not check emissions. It a '99SD 250, 5.4, with a Flowmaster muff. Is my thinking right that less restriction = better efficiancy and more power?
Any thaughts?
