Has anybody done both the debaffle and goat bladder surgery? I have just done the goat bladder and it improved the tone and gas mileage. By doing either the debaffle or both does it necessitate a processor? What if air kit in addition?

Mustang, I believe if you do both you'll lose some back pressure, thus losing power. Debaffling the exhaust will give you more sound though. Probably should've done that first and left the goat belly alone.

I thought about the goat belly, bladder thing early on, until I read a little more. It seems like most people leave that alone and just do the debaffle with good results. I like the sound much more after I debaffled mine. It isn't too loud, but you can hear it when you get on the throttle. I can't really say I feel any power change one way or the other.
