    i'm sure there are no issues with it but you'd be better off going to e-bay and searching for "performance muffler" or something like that...all those canister style universal mufflers are pretty much all the same so you might as well save some money

    the majority of "universal mufflers" are gonna sound like "rice fart mufflers" if you just weld them on to stock piping...replace your stock piping with something a little thicker and you'll get that tone out of pretty much any muffler.

    basically you'd be better off buying a cheaper muffler and spend more money on replacing your stock piping with 2 - 2.25" piping

    I'm pretty pleased with my ractive muffler. Doesn't sound farty or ricey at all... though it was not $64 or less either. I personally just don't like the huge 4" grapefruit-launcher style of those canister mufflers. My ractive muffler fits the profile of the car better IMO:

    which is why i said the majority...the first muffler i ever had which i got from a local "tuner shop" for $70 sounded like shit but the second one i got from ebay for about $35 and it was so low and deep people thought i did a v6 swap...

    of course none of them can compare to the perfect tone of my TRD exhaust, but that'll run you $300 for just the muffler (i got pulled over too many times for an illegal exhaust so i had to bite the bullet and buy one)
