Stillen exhaust...can I unbolt the muffler?

onefastz, on the off chance that you're serious about being concerned about the G3 intake height, these pictures should help illustrate what I mean about their height being the same

Haha I know guys, I'm new to the whole aftermarket products for my car. I obviously knew I would be given a hard time with it, but I was just trying to make sure because a couple of local performance places told me that the intakes would suck up amounts of water and cause damage...didn't really understand their concept of how this would be, so I figured I'd ask.
