What's up, guys? It's Mike, here again. I would like to see another video on my 2019 scat pack charger. I

d the

muffler

on my car about 21 days ago and started asking a lot of questions about the products, the bad ones and everything so we will have a cold start to start this off because the cold starts in the morning, especially today it's nice and cold outside, so today we will do a lot with the car, I just want to make a video about the good and the bad. from the removal of the middle

muffler

so we'll start with the louder cold start it sounds amazing so far my neighbors haven't said anything one more study than mine for all the love okay the first question I've been getting and I have a slot again.

There are guys asking if removing the center muffler has affected my fuel consumption. I've read a lot of things because I was also looking it up to see what I was asking and there are a lot of things on the internet that say that. If you remove the center muffler from your car, the back pressure from the exhaust to the engine can ruin your exhaust. We're working out your gas mileage by saying the engine was tuned for that specific back pressure and I said I've had this for three weeks, my gas mileage is still exactly the same, there are laws and we'll get in here and I'll show you exactly what I'm talking about. , you go in and check the menus as soon as you finish doing this.

Here, oh, it's not unless you've started, but I'm still averaging. I think so, 21 point 3 miles per gallon. I drive this car quite a bit for work, it's like 43 miles each way and I don't see it affecting my fuel economy. Not at all, so if that's one of the concerns you have about not doing this, I wouldn't worry at all. The only difference in fuel consumption that you're going to show is that you drive the car completely differently so you can hear. that exhaust because it never gets old so like I was saying everyone says the engine is tuned to run on that exhaust with back pressure that way the engine runs like it's supposed to and I really don't know if that really affects anything because I kept my exhaust, you know, in case I didn't like it, so you put it back.

I kept the exhaust and they are here so this is actually what they removed from your vehicle and if you look here, there. There is nothing there to restrict the flow. I mean, yes, there is some packing stuff on the sides, but it's nothing that's going to restrict flow, it's straight through, so I don't see how they say back pressure would change. Like I said, those mufflers are straight through, so the next question I got is if having the mid-muffler affects the active exhaust, so when you go between street sport and track, there's a baffle on the exhaust that opens up. and it closes to change the sound of the exhaust for whatever mode you're in and actually that arc goes through the mufflers so once they cut that out and you put the stainless steel pipe back in, that doesn't affect that on Absolutely, so that's how it is.

One thing you won't have to worry about is that it doesn't affect your active exhaust with your sport modes so you don't have to worry about that either, so the third question I get frequently is whether cutting the middle muffler will give you a light check engine and the answer is no, it's not like that. The only thing that will give you a check engine light is if you start messing with the catalytic converter and if you change the downpipe and you don't. get one where the two sensors connect and work with the new one which will give you a check engine light and on st.

Louis in Missouri, we have to do emissions inspections and if your car is, I forget the year, but if you own a newer car, all they do is plug it into the ODB 2 port and as long as it doesn't throw any codes. your car will pass the emissions inspection so that's another thing you don't have to worry about if you live in another area that may be something you want to check but the only other saving grace you have is on these cars that have . resonators on them too and I talked to a couple of guys and they said, but because they have these resonators right here, that legally counts as part of your exhaust, so if you get pulled over, you legally still have exhaust on your car, so that that can give you a way out or a way out or a way out of a ticket you get from an officer who says your exhaust is too loud or that you have one so legally resonators count as a muffler so the following What I do What I get asked a lot is now that the mid silencers have been removed, how much more noise is there in the cabin and the answer is yes, it's not dramatic, you can still have conversations at a normal conversation volume where you don't have to shout. . each other or nothing.

I can still use the Bluetooth phone connection in my car and no one has ever asked what that background noise is so obviously they can't hear it so if that was one of your concerns about the volume inside the cabin it's not a concern not at all, as I said in a previous video. I have a baby, she is 15 months old and she can still sleep in the back no problem so that will give you some indication on the volume levels, if she can sleep then you know there is nothing to worry about so If that was one of them, I wouldn't worry, so one thing I've noticed about the car since I had the muffler half

done was the amount of I don't know what you want to call it.

I don't really think you call it sitting, but on the exhaust tips, since I've done it, they're just dirty all the time and I mean, don't get me wrong, they used to get a little dirty, but it's definitely a lot worse now. I said no, it's not a big deal, but if you're one of those guys who likes your car to be super, super clean. all the time that's something that drives you crazy that you have to do this, so it's something to think about that's not a big deal, but if you're one of those guys, you know you might want to think twice, so one which I am.

I'm trying to set it up. I know a guy at work who also has a scat package. I think he might be a 2015 or 16, maybe a hundred percent sure, but he just installed the Borla attack system on his car. I hope I can do it. Meet him and we can do a side-by-side comparison between the mid-silencer removal and the Borla attack system and hopefully it will give you a better idea of ​​what you're looking for. The only difference will be that I know I spent $200 to do this and I can only imagine what a Borla system would cost but he did the work himself so it reduced the cost a bit but still the price difference will be huge so What if there is any other question.

You guys have I haven't responded, leave a comment below and I'll respond as quickly as I can. The only other thing I wish I had done was remove the middle muffler as I wish I hadn't waited so long. to do it for only $200 you should have done it right away and if you pull it off you won't be disappointed at all. It's about the money. There is no other modification you can do that will change the car more, so like I said, if there is something. If not, you want answers, I can help you, maybe I told you to leave a comment below.
