If you remove the "middle" can will you get more power. It's less restriction isn't it?

Not necessarily. The middle can is most likely a resonator.

ur not gonna start taking off cans under ur car and all of a sudden u can chirp 5th..I mean you won't notice a power increase or anything IF there is one...

On the flipside, you can remove the middle one, I THINK... If the car doesn't run after that u'd know I was wrong... but if it's NOT a resonator and it's a cat... and if ur car is ODBII, it won't pass emissions w/o it... I dunno, I'm not goign to give u advice on which one to cut as I'm not positive, don't cut any of them O.o

oh man be quiet.

your exhaust system comprises of 3 stages of resonation, first (starting from the motor and moving back) is the catalytic converter, that one is necessary (not because of the environment, i couldent care less) because it muffles the sound and you need it to pass e-tests, next is a resonator, this one's only purpose is to quiet down your car, lastly there is a muffler. do NOT take off anything to increase "power" rather, have a custom bigger exhaust built, with a bigger resonator and a higher flow muffler. but again, you will not have any noticible power gains, you will be louder, leading to the illusion of speed
