"Gotts" mod. Remove silencer?

[LonestarROB]

Been talking to Bill about my problems with the S&B CAI and with his opinions, I've decided to ditch the S&B and go with the Gotts mod. So all lastnight I was researching as much as I could. Read the threads here and at other sites. It seems alot of people who have done this mod(or it's many variations) have also removed the "silencer". I didn't even know what that was until I started researching doing this mod . Is this something I should do as well? Does my year and model truck(08' 4.6L V8 2wd) even have one?

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Rob
