Noise is the main reason.

There is also "back pressure" involved although I have no idea what it means or does, I just know on some engines if you just rip off the muffler it might not burn fuel right or something...

U can run a motor without a muffler but it will def affect running. The muffler is most likely not your problem. Why not buy a goat?

Mufflers are for betas who fear being confronted by neighbours for causing noise.  :D

It just filters the shit going out into the air. I bought a 16 inch one for mine works good in the morning because its louder to get the niggars up.

Stopped using mufflers all together because they carry that vibe of suppression. Can't hold us white people down no more.  :D

Never heard that.  Been meaning to become a better informed engine guy.

Ran a pump with a honda for a little while.  Tooth rattling.  The racket just puts you in a shit mood after a few hours.  If I put that setup back together I'll silence the hell out of it.

That fur cylinder thing that the russian women use to warm their hands in the James Bond movies.  I think its called a muff.  Now, I always wondered: Is that where the slang comes from?  I can't ask these sorts of questions irl.
