E500 muffler delete
Hello,
I was wondering if anybody has tried to delete the muffler on the E500. If so, I was wondering how much louder does it get, and how does it sound? Is it raspy?
Thank You

I just took off the second half of the exhaust on mine a while back. Resonator and muffler delete. Horrible drone but vicious sound, very muscular and beefy and aggressive at WOT. It sounds like a race car, it's absolutely BRUTAL. It drones ALOT at low RPMs though, a nightmare to drive around slowly. Both drone and vibration. Once you get higher than 2.5k RPMs though it becomes smooth and aggressive but slow driving is unpleasant in the long run. Fun for the first couple of days though.
