Mufflers '05 GT?
I am looking to remove my mufflers in favor of a straight pipe system. Has anyone done this yet? I have yet to make my decision and could use some input on this for or against.

I am taking my time with this decision. I can get it done cheaper than just the cost of the SLP parts alone. I will be able to re-install factory setup with ease if need be. I like the idea of the sound and power increase, butu how loud is too loud?

I don't think it will sound very good without mufflers, I'd do a highflow cat-back or just weld in some muffs.

The mufflers, even though very far back, still provide back pressure. I would advise against removing them all together. Many manufacturers offer great mufflers to really wake up the sound of the vehicle.
There are 6 cat's on the 2005 Mustang. Remove them or go to a high flow cat setup and you will notice a big difference in sound. There are many options to achieve your goal without giving up performance

Pull the shield off and open everything up....the inside is comprised of 3 smaller cats (bricks) per side housed in one unit.
Why do you think they put the 02 sensor IN the cat? It is not actually in the cat, it is between bricks
