What is the thing that looks like a cat or collector box in this picture of a 2012 roadster exhaust set up? Anyone know impact of removing with bypass of some sort?

I'm looking at the roadster slip-on made by Shorty in uk which says it eliminates cat but slips on the box in picture.

Now i KNOW you know what it is....and its rusty!
 

Cat box either its filled or a hollow look a like depending on its weight. As for what would happen if you get rid of it. Well first a noticable power increase once the proper tune is installed and then a fuel mileage decrease from screwing the throttle to hard to often. Oh and you face will begin to hurt from the seet eating grin you will have
That about sums it up !!!
