My brother was driving the 94 cobra (w/saleen springs) and took a speedbump a bit too fast, and put a giant dent in the passenger side cat of the MAC hiflo hpipe. The car is WAYYYY louder now, but performance doesnt seem to be affected... should I bother to replace this pipe, or is it all good? Thanks.

The only time that you will notice a difference is when you get it smogged. Depending on the damage you may want the smog tech place the probe in the pipe with the non-damaged cat. Don't worry about it until smog time unless you're concerned about the sound level.

it definitely sounded like it had a hole in it. so sooner or later you'll need a new cat. if you're not in a hurry, you should gut it and weld up the hole cause it does not sound good
