2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo Muffler Delete: Performance Boost & Sound Customization
For 2013 Hyundai Veloster owners chasing a sharper driving experience, the turbo muffler delete is a popular modification that delivers both performance gains and a distinctive exhaust note. Removing the stock muffler reduces backpressure, allowing the turbocharged engine to breathe more freely, which translates into improved throttle response and acceleration—especially under steady power delivery. Beyond performance, the custom muffler delete opens the door to personalizing your Veloster’s exhaust sound, turning a standard sedan into a more spirited machine. This modification appeals to performance tuning enthusiasts who value both functionality and character, making it a go-to project for those wanting to elevate their 2013 Hyundai Veloster without compromising reliability. While installation requires careful attention to exhaust sealing and mounting to maintain safety and noise compliance, the results—enhanced power, a deeper growl, and a unique identity—make the turbo muffler delete a worthwhile upgrade for dedicated drivers.
Regardless of tuning goals, the 2013 Hyundai Veloster turbo muffler delete stands out as a practical and impactful modification. Its blend of performance benefits and aesthetic appeal ensures it remains a top choice in the automotive customization community.
Conclusion: If you're seeking to unlock more power and personalization in your 2013 Veloster, the turbo muffler delete offers a proven upgrade path. Pair it with proper tuning and safe installation practices to enjoy a more responsive and distinctive ride—perfect for those who drive with purpose and passion.
I really like the sound you guys are getting with the delete. I have talked to a local muffler shop and got a decent price quote for a custom exhaust from cat back. He suggested a muffler in place of the resonator and straight pipe the rest of the way, using either a turbo muffler or glasspack.
I drive a 2013 Hyundai Veloster NAV, and I am looking to do a muffler delete. Has anybody done this with theirs? or have any opinions/advice about doing so? Both diameters of pipe are the same @ 2.5".
So if you take this project on in sections by doing the muffler delete first, if it's too loud then just replace the resonator with a magnaflow muffler (see part #10426) and you'll essentially have the same thing for hundreds less. Hey guys I had my exhaust made into straight pipe from the cat today. Heres a video if anyone was curious on how a stock VT sounds with this setup.
Also, I have had many cars where removing the resonator would give the car a little sound to hold over until you did full exhaust but not on this. 12K subscribers in the veloster community. A subreddit for Veloster owners and potential buyers to seek help and have discussions related to the car.
That magnaflow resonator isn't going to do anything but be quieter than the stock resonator. You should check out quite a few more video's of the muffler deletes at this thread here Exhaust Sound clips. Also, just doin the muffler delete is way cheaper than deleting the resonator too and adding in a magnaflow.

Sometimes they have resonating chambers built in, but typically they operate on a purely expansive vane. I had the muffler removed and a 2 1/2 pipe made by a performance shop and it sounded ok at idle however, once you get under load its very loud and very raspy IMHO.Im going back tmo to get a cat back system made(probably 3inch) with a new muffler and mate it to the pipe we made yesterday.

Hey! So, I've heard the VT without a muffler in some videos and sound clips and it sounds amazing. I'm considering getting a muffler delete and a turn down welded on, or replacing the muffler with one of those cool cherry bomb ones. Is there anything new I should expect after this is done.
