Gut Factory Muffler

As I pondered this mod, listened to the clip, read comments as to sounding a bit crude, it made me wonder what the sound would be like if the stock pipe, running up to the end cap exit, was NOT cut off short?

Consider that with the pipe cut short, and the hole cut out of the end plate, the two different exhaust paths are doing battle with each other trying to get out the hole in the end cap. The mixed sonic waves bouncing around the various angles inside the cavity between the plate and end cap, may be where some of Japanese tuner car, fart can exhaust, rasp is coming from.

If the standard exhaust path was left intact, all the way out the end cap hole, and the slight amount of bypass exhaust were allowed to exit through the gap around it, I can't help but wonder how it would sound?

So, for the next guy to go down this path, try it and let us know!
