Default what is proper pronunciation of "mugen"?

I've read tons about mugen, but I don't know how to pronounce it. Moo-jen? Moo-gen? Muh-gen? Muh-jen?

Also, what is the name of the company that sells replicas of the mugen twin loop exhaust?

I have always said "Mew-gen" and you might be thinking of Hytech's exhaust, it has a similar twin loop design.

Mugen ==> "mo" (say w/ low tone) "han" (say w/ medium tone)

Ok, what is the REAL pronounciation of THE Mugen, not the knockoffs?

I've been dying to ask this question for a while now.

Mu + Gen

The G in Gen sounds like the G in gun/grenade/etc. Not like in general/George/etc.

But does Mu = Mew (like the greek letter Mu)
Or
Mu = Moo
Or
Mu = Muh (as in Mud, Mug, Must, Muck...)
