Muffler delete Cons
I have read so many posts and threads on it but nobody is still clear.
What are the problems that i have to face after a muffler delete? For cars like jaguar, after a muffler delete there will be lots of error codes that will show up, since this is german, what are the possible problems? My car is a 06' RWD E350.
if its a loss in performance, i guess the the fuel economy will increase lol ( correct me if im wrong) which is a plus point! apart from that what about backpressure? a guy at a shop said if i just did muffler delete and straight pipe it, the backpressure will kill my engine! Also i am having a very tiny whole before the left muffler probably 1mm or less. should i make it big to see the difference? (i know i will get alot of hate for this and i wont do it lol)

noted.
so what about just a single muffler delete for the extra noise?
or saving up some cash and putting a custom made performance muffler or varex/ valvetronic mufflers or e-cutouts? again just for one side....

The only downside is noise.
There will be no power loss/gain from removing the mufflers, you don't "need backpressure", that's an old internet myth.
Are you sure you want your E350 to be loud? A v6 with the mufflers removed is far away from a v8, it's not always a sound that you will enjoy.

A loss of performance will result in poorer fuel economy, not greater. You'll be sticking your foot in it more to make up for the loss.
