I've not done it myself - like the quietness in the cabin and my stock exhaust sounds okay to me when the rear windows are down a bit Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/83428-will-centre-muffler-removal-help-performance-with-existing-mods-befor/#findComment-1344262 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds better than the middle muffler. Has a high flow cat and when he boots it sounds good.
