Default Muffler delete on 14 F Sport?

Hey yall,

I was poking around on YouTube and came across some videos of IS350's with the mufflers off. Sounded pretty great from what I could make out. Was wondering if anyone on here has done this to their GS yet? It's the same motor so it should sound the same right? Would love to hear it in person before I pull the trigger on it.

I started my car after taking my mufflers off when installing my axleback and can tell you it sounds really good. However, (for me at least) it's way too loud for a daily driver and for someone who doesn't want their neighbors to hate you.

Someone has done it, can't recall but its somewhere here. Sounds fine but the drone will be the most annoying part.

Muffler delete was done on mine , if you dont want to **** people off drive in automatic 😂 sounds great and turns heads on manual. Thinking of doing a res delete as well ... but afraid that will be too loud/raspy

If you delete the mufflers you might as well buy ear phones with a mic. You wont be able to hold a convo with the passenger due to the drone.

Also, there are few cars that sound as terrible as an NA V6 with a loud exhaust. 350Z/370Z, G35/37, Maximas all sound atrocious.
Subjective.. but I do also see it from your POV for sure. It doesnt sound that bad though.. but again my opinion
