that is very strange. if you have a welder at home, honestly you can just cut it open, rip that out and weld her back up. But i cant see that being worth your time because 1.) cops 2.) look fairly shitty 3.) will probably sound like crap 4.) cops 5.) time consuming. Ever considered a new muffler? mufflers online are cheap(15$ at summitracing.com) Or is the look or something else of your muffler something you dont want to get rid of?

yup got a welder at home. looks dont really matter to me on a muffler/exhaust. ehh dont really have the money to get a new muffler as i barely have enough money to finish my turbo kit and tune. and like i said before looks of the muffler do not matter to me as long as its not chrome. and i doubt i could sound any worse than what it does..all raspy at higher rpms.

lol...do you think it would even be worth it to open up the muffler and cut that pipe out? or just a big ol waste of time?

more response and feel than anything, power not really. flow management > backpressure and restriction.
