My guess it would be pretty aggressive. It would probably be similar to a car with headers and our catback with S-tube mufflers - Like this:

Bump on this.

Can anyone attest to a noticeable difference between muffler delete and sw retro chambered exhaust with long tube headers?

I've ran muffler delete + lt headers for well over a year and I can tell you that it's VERY LOUD but extremely raspy and high pitched, in other words the decibles are definitely there... just not in a good way I guess.

I'd hate to get muffler delete and think yeah... not a $1,000 difference.

Mine after Stainless power 1 7/8 headers with Stainless works retro chambered cat back, tune and high flow cats.

I went from the SW muffler delete to the SW Retro exhaust and it is not the same at all, much louder and deeper tone, with no drone or raspy sound. Best choice I could have made, very happy.

I actually quit turning on the radio because I would rather listen to my exhaust.
