no, put a glass pack in the mid section, and keep your muffler. It will take away some of the rasp trust me.

IDK if there is a clip with a glass pak and another muffler in addition to it. There are plenty of clips on you tube tho!

My Daytona has no muffler, no cat, and just a glasspack halfway down and the raspyness is gone.
