I deleted my secondary cats, resonator and mufflers. from the axle back i built my own piping and have resonated tips. they actually made a big differance.
Let me tell you a funny story, I installed an invidia mid pipe to replace the stock catted midpipe and guess what? I lost low end torque.
I am not sure if a muffler delete will do anything for you power wise, but I would safely say it would make your car louder! We should thank our lucky stars we drive V8's, otherwise anything you do of that nature to a V6, will sound like a honda!!!

Yes I have felt the same thing and actually, I have thought of putting the stock pipe back for a baseline dyno before adding my hi-flow cats and invidia midpipe - so I can see exactly what is going on.
I thought the muffer will be at least warm or hot after driving a long distance.
Today after driving about 80 miles high way I could touch both mufflers with my bared hand.
It was 55 degrees F outside..
