Question for you all. What kind of muffler can I use to keep from cutting a hole in the cowl?

This is what I did but I'm thinking of cutting the exhaust tube off and running it into a "Y" to 2 flex tubes and running them out where the Waste Gate exhaust stacks come out right where your stacks come out only they would be functional. Also a Canister could be built that the stack from my existing set up would go into and would be fastened to the bottom of the motor box with the flex tubes coming out the back and routed down to the Waste Gate stacks go. Lots of different things are possible. I don't remember where I saw it but I've seen the same thing with all flex pipe from a modified pitts muffler.
