i got a 3a muffler off my buddy.
it was on an integra for a couple months, then i got it. sold it to my friend and it sounded nasty. he took it off to put on a new muffler and found out the seam on the top of the muffler was cracked open. -------------------- Jared Harwell

haha, side pipes, that's awesome. Good for you for doing something orginal.
As far as the muffler goes, 3A racing is crap. They use very low end building materials. Also, they typically sound horrible, but that depends on what car it's on. If rocky's is working well for him, do it. But if you want my recommandation, try to get ahold of a skunk2 muffler, they sound awesome. And make for the muffler has baffles in it. My HKS doesn't and it sounds ricey till the car warms up. -------------------- NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
