What's a decent muffler that won't break the bank?

    I was set to go with TRD parts, but dang, really don't want to spend that much. A quick forum search turned up some folks using Flowmasters, but I'm leery of that since I hate drone at cruising speed.

    Anyone have a recommendation for a muffler that won't rust out in a couple years but also won't cost an arm and leg? Bonus points if it sounds good!

    I would too. If it didn't have a hole in it.

    Gibson factory series, 304 stainless sounds like stock and cost like 60 bucks on Amazon might need to weld it on though
