Muffler delete? Exhaust systems may not legally be modified in that manner.

Car tuning is legal here, too. You'd be better off buying something like a Borla, MagnaFlow, or FlowMaster cat-back system.

You;re looking for a delicate balance when it comes to backpressure in the exhaust. Too little, and you damage the engine in relatively short time. Too much, and you damage the engine even quicker.

Thnx for the advise.
But buying some borlas or magna flows are expensive I'm not willing to pay that much
I have bought magna flow exhaust tips so I can weld them with the pipes so should I do it?

Weld the tips on, no problem. If you can replace the stock mufflers with glasspacks, I would.
