I just did a muffler delete at a local muffler shop. Just noticed the pipes are pressure bent not mandrel. Is this a big concern?

so there's a muffler, cats and a resonator and you can just pop that stuff off without messing up codes? I thought the cats had to stay on.

someone in this thread and a few others have said they got rid of them.
Yes, but then you have to fabricate new sensor locations, some downpipes have them already installed..

Key words in the subject of the thread MUFFLER DELETE. I only had the muffler removed and replaced with a section of pipe. 13,000 miles later and no issues.
