Default ES Oval Muffler

http://www.inlinefour.com/estunsysovun.html

This looks like a really nice muffler. Great for the money yet is great quality. Doesn't have really loud sound which is good. Does anyone have this muffler?

Pictures/ Sounds would be great

Also, It does look a little short, do you think i would need to buy a tip for it?

Only purchase Axle-backs. Mufflers are a waste.

My avatar is the best I can do right now
EDIT: RIMS painted black, SI grill, painted headlights.

Axle-backs cost 200 no more. Why buy a muffler at 100 then pay 30 to fit it.

IMO, just take that one more month to save for the axle-back.

no, you do not need to purchase a tip for it: 1) looks best w/o one 2) have yet to see one with a tip 3) unless you want one, you could i guess

why the hell, what is so great about es mufflers? The have a cheap crimped can design, cheap packing material, thin stainless.....definatelty not worth the "bang for the buck" 100 bucks. If you are paying more than 80 bucks fo a muffler you are doing something wrong, and you could get better ish than that for 80 bucks.
