guys run cut outs though so if they are runnin basically open headers then if you didnt have a muffler and run through the pipes you will have more backpressure so i wouldnt see you havin any problems.

2 of my freinds did that with an 86 and 87 IROC. It sounded great, real loud, i described it in more detail in the v6 forum under exhaust cutouts on v6 cars.
