Well, some manufacturers are so proud of their products, they'll emboss their name on some part of the exhaust, most times on the side of the muffler and/or resonator.
If you find no name, it says a lot about who made it

I would go back to stock exhaust. When my stock muffler pipe finally developed a hole (6 years), I bought a muffler from a muffler shop. It made the whole car vibrate at a certain rpm. It almost had me convinced my engine was comming apart. When that piece of crap developed a hole (about 1.5 years) I went back to the stock muffler. It cost me $210, but I could have sworn I had a whole new engine. And the best part is I installed it easy as pie!! Bolted right up.
