Sorry I can't give you an answer but I certainly won't ever be taking any vehicle of mine to a Midas.

I have the Super 40 in my 05. We took out the muffler back and installed the Super 40 and new tail section.
I Love the sound Not Ricey at all. Nice throaty tone
Everyone one that I have run into on the trail and meets love the way my X sounds. Even guys with Gibsons

What do you mean "Them"? There should be only one. ( which is right by the tail pipe. Looks like someone stuffed a small roll of paper towels in the tail pipe ) I left everything from muffler forward stock.
Eventually I want to replace that restrictive Y pipe that nissan put in before the Muffler.
But that will be something down the road.
You will enjoy the sound
After the install at a local shop the guy started it up to pull it out of the garage and gave it a good rev. ( Smile ear to ear )

I never touched those
Then again that is why it was a total of $80 installed. $40 for the 40 and 40 for the install.
If you are going to yank those then you are better off doing a full cat back install.No point in just replacing those with straight pipe and leaving the Y.
Plus you could go a little larger in pipe than the stock stuff.

i dont want to spend 400 dollars on a cat back when i can get ther same to close results with taking them out. i dont have the money to get a full exhaust makeover. i dont want to go with a larger pipe. i want a little backpreasure but not much.
