Default exhaust question

2000 4x4 500cc, any ideas on how to make the muffler breath better? i want to keep the oem muffler, im thinking of cutting the end off, gutting it, then welding the end back on.
good idea??

A little louder is fine with me, the whole issue is the little teeny 90 for the exhaust outlet, it looks so....…cute, and I don't like it.

It will only be louder and sound like crap, and you will not get any more power out of it...very simply, it will sound like a gutted muffler (amazing, yes?)
