That would be the cheap way to remove it and get a good look at the factory muffler. Of course, if you had to drive the car with the muffler removed, it would be LOUD!!!!
I would like to install a Dynomax Super Turbo muffler on the car as I have had this muffler on several others and it gave a nice, docile tone at low rpms but it is about like stock at higher rpms. My concern is that if the stock muffler is already a turbo style muffler then I won't gain anything by changing it.
