Surely they have exhaust shops in Germany.

Just cut the rear muffler off and have someone bend up a pipe to replace it and clamp it on. Its only going to save a few pounds and make more noise. Performance gains will be minimal.

it must be my area I looked at shops with in 2hrs of me, I went to 7 shops they all said it would be a lot of work and cost a arm and leg, I called and emailed about 12 shops and they said the same .. lol there is even a place called Theo muffler shop I called him and asked if he did custom work lol he said sorry he cant.. trust me man I have a Camaro ss with full exhaust I would think it be easy but no all these shops act like they can't do nothing ..
any ways thanks for the reply I will Look into it, so you saying do a muffler delete and straight pipe it from the cat?
