dumped exhaust?

so i searched but couldn't find anything. I am considering cutting off my exhaust from the rear cat back and modding it to come out of the right side true dual with no muffler...any comments? im curious how loud it will be and what it will do for my mpg and power?

It'll be loud, torque may be a little better since restriction is lost, but economy not fully sure on. Muffler removals usually tend to rob your economy due to no velocity.

Here is a similar setup to what you are planning.

No X-pipe? It's going to run like crap because you will lose so much torque.
