Default Need new muffler?Help?

I bought my 1993 Civic EX a while back and the muffler is turning to ****. Its rusting and about to fall off( not to mention the hangers are barely hanging on and it sounds like a falling apart datsun 510). Anyone have any suggestions on what I should do. I new muffler? buy a cheap one off ebay and have a shop weld it on? I am VERY tight on money. Just leave some suggestions, thanks. Everything on my car is tip top shape , except for my ole muffler.

Looks like its flanged right before the muffler, try finding an OEM muffler and bolt it on to avoid paying for a muffler AND a shop to weld it on?

seriously buy a muffler that u like..pretty cheap and then go get some piping welded on...if u wanna save money...u can get a pretty decent muffler for a resonable price and u can get some piping done..but it depends on wat size of piping u want...the usual is like 2 1/4 to 2 1/2.

it should sound good being as you are still running stock piping you wont gat a real rasppy sound untill you start taking resonaters out. you will need the shop 2 must likley enlarge the pipe 2 proper size for the muffler intake though it should be about 50 bucks
