If you eliminate the middle muffler but leave the rear, the exhaust will drone. Having a middle
muffler rather than a rear muffler sort of breaks up the amount of distance the sound has to travel before it gets muffled. If you had only one muffler at the rear, you'd essentially have a huge, unmuffled section of pipe coming from the cats, all the way to the rear of the car. That's a lot of unsilenced pipe and I would imagine it would rattle and drone. That's why Twin1, UUC VM's, and anyone who makes a one-muffler custom exhaust encorporates one middle muffler rather than one rear one.

In the Romulus set up from Remus in a RS4 B5 they eliminate the midlee with strait pipe and replace
replace the rear, this gave me the idea so I did the same with my S4 and the truth is that it work great with no drone.
