Stillen exhaust...can I unbolt the muffler?

onefastz

I had my Stillen catback exhaust installed on my 370z yesterday, and before they put the muffler and tips on, I started the car to see how it would sound without them...and it sounded amazing! I still went ahead and had the muffler put on because it would look dumb without it because of the two holes in the bumper for the tips. My question is can I unbolt the muffler from the rest of the exhaust and just let it barely hang there (I don't think it would be loose and just dangling there?), leaving everything still in place, and it sound the same as before I had the mufflers put on? In other words, would simply unbolting the mufflers from the rest of the exhaust make it sound like it did before the mufflers were put on?
