muffler sound???

one of my friends gave me a 1 year old universal SS muffler... ( he bought it but it didnt fit his car )
the muffler looks like the one on the ebay link with a huge tip

would you install this kind of muffler on your max or will it soundlike a honda style trumpet ?

my car is stock except the Frankencar air intake

How small is the canister-ebay is blocked and i cant see it. If its just one of those really small cylendrical can mufflers i would sell it on ebay or some place and buy a dif. one

The more oval the muffler can is, the deeper the sound will be. I have an oval universal muffler and I love the sound. It's only a 3" tip which I prefer,(I don't want a gigantic coffee can hanging down under the bumper), and I have gotten many compliments on the sound and appearance. Best part is, it was only $89, and took about an hour and a half to install myself.
