I doubt the test pipe will get rid of the sound your describing.. Will sound different but not get rid of the rasping bat bat bat...
I know from experience.. but your case may be different.

Yeah I don't think the test pipe will accomplish anything. Friend got the same sound on his civic with one. I think the H/F CAT or even the regular cat and doing what I talked about will do the trick.

and i am here to say that the one that you are talking about does NOT work and you should just get a test pipe... you will know it doesnt work if you have a car that runs two o2 sensors... you will start throwing a code as soon as you put it on the car...

He's OBD1 so he should'nt be throwing any codes. He's running a stock header to a hollowed out cat with 2 1/4 straight piping all the way back to a RSX Type S Muffler. He heeds something to resonate the sound before it exits. I've seen bolt in resonator chambers.
