So let me say this,
I was having clearance issues with the exhaust and the peddles. I searched on here what it would feel without a muffler. People said it's louder, more HP. Many said to that how it will affect the engine in the end.
So the bolts to the muffler came out. I lost one bolt but had a replacement. When it happened I INSTANTLY noticed a difference. It was beyond loud and more importantly I absolutely had decreased performance. It was struggling to accelerate, something similar to when you drive a car with bad spark plugs. I couldn't just accelerate like normal, it was struggling.
So why do people want no muffler saying it's better when it clearly decreases performance. Maybe some didn't have such a bad experience like I did which is why they want to do it.
Side note : I ordered a half moon exhaust hoping I can clear the peddles even more. Has anybody ever had ordered a half moon exhaust with the intent to have better clearence than the standard exhaust? I had to unscrew the bolts a little bit in order for the exhaust to be more flexible. I am having this black stuff come out of my exhaust that's shooting out. Don't know
what it is and if it's normal.
