[DeTomaso] Gutting 1972 Pre L stock exhaust

[Fredrik Gustavsson]

I did the surgery (V diverter) on my GTS mufflers but not on the resonator
tips. It's a little bit louder now but not much.

I've heard a big block car with gutted mufflers and gutted resonators. The
sound was very un-attractive.

Both reference GTS exhaust.  The Space City post runs a "V" diverter at the
exit to the tips while the PI post shows a "V" pipe welded in to each side
of the tip.  I like the "V" pipe better because it will not have an "oil
can" affect as it directs gasses out the tips.

remove the resonators in the tips and "sleeve" the chrome tips instead?  I
want the car to sound LOUD and like a very powerful Italian sports car.  Not
Bubba's redneck pick-up with straight pipes.
