Tip and Muffler = rice/makes noise
Canister Exaust = rice/makes noise

U want a cat back exhaust system, or better yet, header and back system..overall larger diameter piping is what helps free up power..not a noisy *** muffler.

Not if you want to be fast Hehe.

Anyway, yeah. Muffler = canister. So a muffler + tip is basically just a canister exhaust. And all canisters have a tip, obviously. So they're the same thing.

Those just alter the sound of the exhaust. It does nothing for performance. Don't get me wrong, not everyone is looking for performance, and if you're not, getting one of these is cheap and effective.

If you want performance, think about your goals for the vehicle. Are you going to need a straight through design with large diameter piping? Or a quieter chambered setup with almost stock diameter so you have some backpressure. Start from there.
