my friend said if i cut open my muffler and take all that crap out of it and weld it back together it would sound pretty loud, has anyone ever done this. do you guys think it would effect anything.

Yes it will unless you have a turbo

yeah it's going to be louder but not as loud as a car that doesn't have a turbo. A turbocharger acts like a muffler it just doesn't work very well

yes it is a big difference. I am just saying if you put a NA with straight pipes and a Turbo with straight pipes next to each other and crank them up the turbo is going to be quieter

What benefit is this Expensive mod going to do for you except get you defected?

Why dont you get a larger exhaust system with legal mufflers that will give you the benefit of better response and more power??

asleepz

I guess just for the louder sound. It's not going to mess with emissions but it might put you over the legal decimal limit. I'm not sure

Go ahead and do it and do some budget mods. If your just looking for a louder sound go for it.

Technically yes it is; but if a cop pulls you over for the noise and sees the muffler he probably will not know you have done that.

Technically it is illegal because you are running a straight pipe but it is a muffler. Just not a very good one
