Do I need a new muffler

It looks cracked but the car sounds fine. I can't decide if it worth it to get it fixed. It's a 06 cobalt ss with a 2.4L. I've been looking around for replacement mufflers but I can't seem to find them anywhere

If it doesn't sound any different and doesn't bother you don't worry about it, it won't hurt anything

^this. And if you do decide to replace it, get an aftermarket one to keep cost down. I bet a dealership would charge a couple hundred bucks for a stock muffler.

Go to a muffler shop, they can order Walker OE-replacements which are good stuff. I need to have my resonator replaced soon as its burned out and rattles (its the factory one).

Where is a good place to look for mufflers? I need a 2-1/4in. The sound of the exhaust leak is killing me.
