Yes, IMO, removing the muffler is by far the cheapest route. However, and I stress this, HOWEVER, there are some draw backs and things that need to be considered. Like, because of my resonating exhaust tip I dont have a raspy/rattling can noise. I'm sure if I didnt have the tip it would be slightly "raspier" (not a word) sounding. There is a possible legal issue by not having a muffler. Texas requires a visible muffler to pass inspection. However, some inspectors will count our mid-pipe as a muffler and pass us, some will not. These are just a few things to consider. Its definitely the cheap way out, but it has is advantages and disadvantages. Me personally, I have 0 regrets and I would do it again if given the opportunity. :)

I live in a small town so we dont even get what we call "Air care" here in Canada.

(Making sure the car is fine and doesnt over pollute) shouldn't be an issue, I got a tip on my car atm.

So all I would need is an extra piec of metal with a tip and have it all welded together to get the better sound? I don't know if its just me but my tip has an enclosed thing inside so it slightly sounds different because the air comes out being compressed kinda. Gotta go real fast to hear it or hear it barely on idle.

Thanks for the tips man.
