Removed all four mufflers, my thoughts after a week.
Let me start by saying this, I value my gas mileage and still did this, about two weeks ago I removed my rear muffs, nice little sound, no drone at all, couldn’t really hear it on highway speeds, no change in MPG. Last week I removed the last two, leaving just the resonator and cats, first impressions.... DRONE, but nice growl from 2500-4000 rpm. My city MPG obviously decreased by roughly 2 mpg, my highway stayed the same. Haven’t posted in awhile so just thought I’d start a conversation, what exhaust changes have you guys done?

Only replacing rusty parts. I may try to take mine apart on my 97 and patch it up good at some point. I was wondering where you got too kambam.
I have the opposite desire to you. I want the exhaust to be quiet.

I can understand wanting that, I’ve been doing lots of work to the car just haven’t been posting, finally got a new windshield, recently ordered new hood hinges (100$)to put on my new hood..... she’s coming back together nicely.

If the videos I've seen are to be believed removing those gives it a growl when punching it not necessarily when putting around town

i've just done the rear 2 mufflers, i just wanted a little bit of subtle rumble that wouldn't be overly obnoxious... one day when my car was at the shop for something i asked my mechanic to just unbolt the rear 2 mufflers for me just to see what it was like, and i liked it so i had him weld some pipes in place of the mufflers so i wasn't getting exhaust being let out right under the car
my friend described it as sounding like vin diesel's muscle car lol so i'm happy to stop there

I have been wanting to get an electronic exhaust cut-out for just before the Y into the 4 mufflers, and then add 2 mufflers back in. So I can have the obnoxious drony loudness, hit a switch, and get subdued cruising quietness. These variable cut-out mufflers from Quick Time Performance look real nice: https://quicktimeperformance.com/p-3...c-muffler.html

I like it, quiet at idle and cruising then scream when laying into it
