Very shortly I will have to replace the front section of my exhaust system.
I am going to replace it with a stainless steel item probably custom made and was wondering whether to leave the first exhaust box out.
What I want to achieve is a slightly more sporty sound without being unrefined and hopefully some increase in power and reduction in back pressure bearing in mind the prospect of replacing the remainder a little later with the same aims in mind.
Does anyone have any experience with this type of modification and if so what was the result?

Many thanks in advance.
