Does nobody understand that all universal mufflers are going to sound pretty much the same?

Cut off your stock muffler....listen to that....there's the gross sound you're gonna get from any universal muffler.

i put on a magnaflow street model, nice sound, no bees in the can at all. at higher rpms you get a nice rumble back there. i guess you could say it was universal, i bought it from a muffler shop.

slap that same muffler on a small 4 cylinder engine and see if you like the sound

i remember reading a post that our larger engine displacement helps out with the sound. can't really get it to sound like a honda.
