Started my car without Mufflers on it.

I loved the sound, I hated to put my new HKS' on. The note was right on the money when throttle was applied. Anyone else ever tried this while changing out exhausts. My friend that was helping me is an american muscle car driver (71 Chevelle) and was impressed by the sound of my exhaust without the mufflers on it.
Staight pipes on the CLS, or Straights with side outlets ?
Just a thought. Thought I would share.

Back on topic. The exhaust note was still not very loud. Just had a more interesting note to it.

Thought that was only if we removed the Cat and replaced with a "high flow" one. I know that we need a certain amount of backpressure, but I didn't know the mufflers provided that much of it.
BTW Darrin, I am going to be in MI starting this friday until the the next saturday visiting my grandparents relatives ect. was going to see about getting together with some of you MI guys if possible, stay tuned for a thread in ramblings about it.
