philv Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 would it hurt the car to run without the mufflers? I'm thinking about removing them for the cruise on central. I'll put them back on when I get home, I just wanna have some fun tomorrow.lol and how hard are they to remove? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sidewinder Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 No harm at all. Google C5 muffler removal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philv Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 No harm at all. Google C5 muffler removal. just did, but wouldn't the exhaust hitting the diff get it to hot? or would it be fine for a day of fun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Poppa Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 You gotta get it really high off the ground too. And without an x pipe it sounds HORRIBLE. Not worth the trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoWorries Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 You could disconnect the mufflers from the mid-pipe. Take out the gaskets. Put in 3-4 metal washers per bolt (there are 2 bolts on each pipe). Then reconnect bolts. Pretty much get the same effect and sound. And alot less likely to be ticketed for no mufflers.

NoWorries Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Welcome. Did that with another vehicle to test back pressure differences for performance at the dragstrip. Made no difference in time, but certainly more aggressive sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
