Frankencar Muffler

I need a muffler for my 2000 SE and I heard that the frankencar was a good muffler. Anyone have pics of this muffler installed and any opinions on it. Also, where can I get it and how much is it going to cost me?

that is what is loos like nice and stealth but big improvent over stock looks

the sound is stock until high rpms then it sounds like a G35

the muffler by it self bascially is very quiet

Hmm... any more feedback on this? It's over a hundred cheaper than the Cattman but I don't want something TOO quiet.

Be aware that although Frankencar makes good quality products, this muffler is bigger than stock one. It's also heavier. You will need to take care of the rattling, since the muffler is touching the heatshield. They do send you some clamps to make it better, but in my case I still haven't got rid of all rattles. Also, the complete exhaust sounds almost like stock so the muffler itself WILL NOT be much, if any, louder than your stock one. I had the exhaust installed before anything else and after I installed Berk intake, I can say that my intake is louder than the exhaust.
Good luck!
