Default Dangers???

Ok, I'm planning on running no mufflers now... I can't stand my exhaust anymore, it drives me crazy...

So, I'm going to run mufflerless now... for at least sometime... is there any problems I need to worry about? Other than the fact that I will lose a significant amount of backpressure?

I've been talking to a friend, and he said he thinks with the dual 2.25" pipes, exited out the side, that I should have nothing to worry about... what do you guys think?

I'd like to know as well, and will you be selling your mufflers? I might be interested.

As long as you leave your cats in you should have enough back pressure not to worry about anything.
