Has anyone ever removed the center muffler and left the stock rear muffler in place? I would like a little more exhaust tone out the rear but I do not want an exhaust drone sound inside the cabin. I've heard removing the rear muffler does nothing. I also have been told to be careful not to reduce backpressure too much or you will sacrifice horsepower & torque on the 2.8 (no turbo). Any experience out there with this on a 2.8? Thanks.

but I have 2 mufflers, a mid muffler 4" round and a 4x9x14 oval rear muffler.

They are straight through type mufflers with a perforated center pipe that is surrounded by steel wool and fiberglass. The entire muffler is made from stainless steel 16ga to be exact.

The pair of mufflers costs $150 from bigexhaust.com You just have to pick a tip that looks good.

It was cool in the begining but lately its just not all that great. Its not the loudness but the tone that I don't like, especially when the car is cold or in colder weather. I am replacing the rear muffler with a neuspeed/borla soon and I will do it without the mid muffler. Will see if it gets better.

I love the Remus, where did you get it and did you say you removed the muffler located in the center of the underbody? You have a nice set up - looks great! Do you think you lost torque by creating less backpressure? I've heard that is an issue on the 2.8 non turbo. Thanks.
