well i can cut off my own muffler, but my old man doesnt want me to he says he would like me to be able to put it back on if it was too loud...and for a system ive basically decided on glasspacks, because my friend has a truck just like mine with just glasspacks and sidepipes and it has the sweetest sound ive ever heard

Well, its tough removing the muffler...I had to resort to the 'ol hacksaw. lol, I've probably cut my exhaust piping, mufflers, whatnots, with a hacksaw like 10 times. My arm hurts...lol 
The glasspacks sound good. I don't really like the pop, so I replaced mine with a racing Flowmaster...deep sound and no crackle. Can't wait till I get the headers!

They make a chisel like tool that cuts a slot in the muffler neck or pipe by driving it with a hammer. The cutting edge is T shaped, top of the T lays on the pipe and the vertical
coming off does the cutting. If you don't go wild with it you can slot muffler or pipe on two sides top and bottom about 3/4 of the way and you can pull the muffler or pipe side to side loosening it. Not as easy as a oxy acetelene torch but it will work and if you are careful the parts are reuseable.
