Getting ready to do my muffler delete/bypass pipe install, and was wondering if the 2 large cavities in the fenders, where the mufflers once resided, could cause any aero dynamics issues/problems at higher speeds?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I would guess that the difference caused by the mufflers would not be noticeable (though theoretically, a bit more lift, a bit more drag and slightly more wind noise seem plausible).
I wondered about this myself. I've had mine off for around 3yrs now and can't notice one bit of difference, besides the sound. I've had it up to "above legal speeds"...
There must be some slight parachute effect at "track" speeds.
