CO leaking?

I recently got a 2010 maxima and I've been loving it❤, but I wanted to hear the engine more but wasn't sure if I wanted to do a muffler delete or not bc I don't want it to be too loud, so the other day I decided to take off the mufflers to see what it sounds like and honestly it sounds awesome! But I then I realized that without the mufflers the exhaust is coming from almost right under the back passenger seats! I was wondering let's just say for one day I decided to drive with no mufflers, will CO leak into the cabin and kill me and my passengers? Untill I find a place that can weld a proper muffler delete with tail pipes, I was wondering if I run no tail pipes is CO gonna entre the cabin?

Yes, the Carbon Monoxide will enter the cabin of your car. Do you have a death wish?

"Until I find a place that can weld a proper muffler delete with tail pipes," Those places already exist, and are easy to find. They are commonly called "Muffler Shops".

Carbon monoxide poisoning occurs when carbon monoxide builds up in your bloodstream. When too much carbon monoxide is in the air, your body replaces the oxygen in your red blood cells with carbon monoxide. This can lead to serious tissue damage, or even death.

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas produced by burning gasoline, wood, propane, charcoal or other fuel. Improperly ventilated appliances and engines, particularly in a tightly sealed or enclosed space, may allow carbon monoxide to accumulate to dangerous levels.

If you think you or someone you're with may have carbon monoxide poisoning, get into fresh air and seek emergency medical care.

Any 'muffler shop' will have exhaust components in stock.
