Also what are the effects of a muffler delete and how is it done? Thank you all by the way for all the help. i love Camaro5
You cut the mufflers off and weld in new pipe. Simple as that. Lol.

Things to think about. Muffler delete is very raspy. You will want the 2.5" resonated x pipe in place of the h pipe, and the oem resonators are your car.

I also recommend (if you feel like doing a muffler delete) to use either 2.5" or 3" piping from the x pipe back. 3" pipes have a deeper (I think better) sound.

If you can afford it the Borla or Corsa w/ J pipes are the best.

If your on a budget the MRT2.0 w/magnaflow X-pipe like I have works great and is not to expensive. I ended up having a muffler shop add some J-pipes to clam down the highway drone.

I am one of them that has already done this and it does sound amazing. It is the least expensive exhaust and completely changes how the car sounds. Adds a very nice exotic sports car sound.

I just put on the MRT V2. What difference would adding the x pipe do on my setup?
