I was just sitting here pondering just now and i wondered. I would like a louder sounding exhaust, but i dont have the money right now to take the muffler off that i have now and get a new one (gonna do a cat back when i do that ) so my question is what would be the pros and cons of unbolting any part of the exhaust system underneath. I know a friend of mine did it with his turbo miata he is running with open headers, but my car is of course N/A and in doing that i would lose all my torque and god knows what else. I was thinking of unbolting after the resonator or something similar to that but i dont know if that would affect back pressure or not. So is this just a cheap idea or a total waste of time? if so ill just wait lol.

Your stock cat is a highflow cat [At least my '99's stock one was]- it's just tiny sized pipe that's the real problem. You'll feel things on the butt dyno and in the accelerator pedal [Throttle response] - be happy with that. Just do it - you'll like it.
