Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 6m 8d Posted 09/09/12 05:58 AM Share Posted 09/09/12 05:58 AM I was going to do the centre muffler removal on my auto sedan and replace with hotdogs but I like the idea of doing the rear muffler so I can change the tips while I'm going. So from what I gather with the rear muffler removal straight pipes sounds good in auto?Are the mufflers different sizes and that's why the centre muffler removal is louder than the rear?

Dont know if anyone else has said this but if you get the centre muffler removed, and get hit from behind it eliminates a crumple zone. This then leads to a hell of a sh*t fight with insurances... I had mine in the shop for 3 weeks before they even approved the exhaust.

NRMA's meant to be pretty good with minor mods and stuff but lets hope we never have to deal with that Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18022-centre-muffler-removal/page/133/#findComment-1307051 Share on other sites More sharing options...
