The one in the front is a resonator, the actual muffler is in the back. I removed the front resonator a couple of years ago when it went bad as the internal plates broke welds and they were rattling. Replaced it with a straight pipe. Removing completely the rear muffler might be illegal in your state plus I'm not sure you want to hear the noise of a 1.4l 4 cylinder. It's no V8.
