it's just a copy, with some probably rather shitty sound deadening material, if you can even call it that. Most no-name, found-on-eBay, copy-of-name-brand mufflers are not that great.

Ya know, there's plenty of Magnaflow mufflers all over eBay for around $60-70, and with those you wouldn't have to worry about it sounding crappy.

their product history is filed with spotty reliability and many ill fitting/performing parts. on my own vehicle i dont have any desire to run subpar equipment, it always ends up costing more, whether it be downtime to make the part work properly/actually fit or the cost and time necessary to replace it when it fails.
