Default Muffler Delete...straight Pipe

I have a 2007 GT and I was wondering if it would sound OK if I just removed the mufflers and went with straight pipes out the back.....I want a loud agressive sound.....

Also would removing the mufflers entirley damage my Power? would I lose any HP or Torque at all?

quick question...

in two of those videos it said "Pypes Muffler Delete".....so what does that mean? no mufflers and just straight pipes made by Pypes? does it affect the sound with different types of straight pipes or is it all the same?


and when you do the muffler delete...is it just no mufflers and a crome or stainless steel pipe that extends out the back or is there more involved?

I ask this just because I want to do it right the first time..

a "true" muffler delete, is when you chop off your mufflers, and weld/clamp in piping....

cheap, easy, done.


this is the pypes

very good looking... but SOO expensive when compared to the first method.

Is there a sound difference between the two or is it all the same?

I have the pypes and they sound bad ***- it's raspy and blarringly loud

hate to sound like a broken record but the fitment is horrible lol.No big deal though,only took $80 to weld on new hangers,for $189 they really are a bargain for great sound.Feels like it's quicker also.

just have it done at a good exhaust shop. got resonators welded in front of the rear axle and strait pipes out the back with a tip. cost $150 with install. it sounds and fits great since it was a custom job.
