are you talking about the two pipes that split in the middle of the car, the resinators, yes you can remove that and replace it with normal 2 1/4" piping you will have a deeper tone, not loud, and no performance gain, but sounds cool

I had the muffler removed this summer and love it! $170 installed.
Of all of the mods I have done to my car this is my favorite.
When I did this I figured I would try it and planned to return to stock or get a used blitz if I did not like it.

TopDown - do you have a vid/sound clip of your car? Did you take the resonantors out as well, or just muffler? Thus straight pipes after the cat?
Would love to compare how these all sound. Im planning on modifying my exhaust, however cannot decide which way to go without hearing all the options. I know on you tube, there is the black SC with the resonantors replaced by straight pipes and new exhaust tips; and a red sc with the Blitz exhaust. Any others? Thanks
