Removing the muffler entirely, you`ll likely lose "some" back pressure, which will make the low-end torque a little lazier. Doubt you`ll see any increase`s in mpg or power either, it`ll just be slightly louder without the muffler... if you`re just lookin for louder, rip it off. You`ll likely have alot of cab drone without the muffler. Are you doing anything with the resonators at the tail tips..???
A "Y" pipe is unlikley going to change the sound, at least not enough to hear much of a difference anyway. If you plan on more engine mods later, then install a better "Y" pipe. I believe MAGNAFLOW makes a custom Y pipe. Other than that, its really a waste of time and money. Just my thoughts on it.
