Default Muffler delete

I'm thinking about cutting my my mid mufflers. Has anyone did it and can tell me how it sounds? And how loud it is?

I'm thinking of doing the same. The most popular route is to replace mid suitcase muffler with X-pipe. After doing research on this, i've gathered that a resonated X-pipe with stock rear mufflers won't make much difference over stock, so i'm considering a regular non-res x-pipe.
Let us know if you do it..

I replaced the mid suitcase muffler with an Xpipe deleted both resonators but kept the rear stock mufflers. I love the sound. It even sound better in S mode. But there is a notable lag when I take off in S mode I know it used to be the case even before I made this mode, but it seems to be much more noticeable now. Besides that the sound is fantastic when I hit the high rpms like 65+

When you did this, did you simply just ask your muffler shop to delete a res? I just ordered the magnaflow cat-back system and am having it shipped to my muffler shop, and I'm debating on if I want to just bolt it up as is, or ask them to do anything special with it. Let me know.
