I had a x-pipe with no mufflers dumped at the rear axle. It didn't sound bad, just loud and obnoxious. Ran it for like 3 months and finally had to put my mufflers on.

Id like to run a X Pipe with a small Burns Stainless Muffler on each side dumping at the rear axle. Should sound pretty badass.

I'd love to know what this would sound like as I'm about to have my exhaust set up for me. I'm doing true duals over the axle also, just not sure what I want to run for mufflers, if any. I was thinking either Spintech Prostreets, Powersticks (chambered mufflers), or no mufflers at all... But I want to avoid the "pickup truck with rusty exhaust" sound.
