Played around with the exaust today. Some general thoughts

Nope, it would be a waste of weight, time and money. You can get a pair of Vibrant 18" resonators which would tone both the volume and the rasp down for a reasonable cash outlay.

I have...

Stock Cats
Cheap Y pipe
Stock resonators
Muffler delete pipes

It's louder than most cat backs, however the sound is deep and throaty... not raspy at all. It is just enough to give it a little gurgle...

I have been toying around with the idea of test pipes but I don't want it to be extremely loud.

This pic was taken from Kastley85891 after he gutted his muffler

So, looking to cover my costs and time, it currently is fitted with 2 90 pipes internally, it did free up some top end for me power wise via the ole butt.

What was removed.

hope that helps a little. maybe he can provide some insight

Your going to have rasp from non resonated cheap tps. Now you wanna gut the muffler? Im thinking thats only gonna give you tons more rasp/ a loud ricey note.
So i have some thoughts! lol.
Id put all your original stuff back on or at least keep the OEM muffler stock till you look into a cat delete. AAM Competition short tails looks like a good redemption idea? Considering i see the route that your trying to take. Either way, I just hope its clean and non raspy. I give props to TypeOne, he made it work.

Stick with your current set up. With the Y and muffler deletes the TPs will make it unbearable. This coming from a guy who LOVES loud exhaust.
