Just because its from a muffler shop doesnt mean its going to sound shitty.

well if it already has a resonator.....i suggest u change the muffler to a borla or magnaflow
cause generally canister style mufflers are made for LOUD(and raspyish too)

if u do like ur fart cannon......then get either a magnaflow or vibrant 14-18 incher. they're the best!
