Mufflers in the plural form, I'm assuming you're referring to the 50i?

In my experience straight pipes don't ever add bass, just overall sound volume with added rasp if their is any present. Any higher flow system with a muffler will add some sound volume without the higher frequencies.

Dropped my car off last night for get the Vibrant (10632) muffler installed this morn and he called and gave me some bs story that I would have to take it somewhere else. Says the vibrant muffler is smaller than OEM so the pipes that exit the muffler will have to be fabricated (said the OEM pipes were to short) and that would require MIG welding in which he doesn't do. Personally, I don't think he wanted to mess with it. I asked him if Maxi Muffler could do it and he acted like they couldn't do that type of welding either. He commented on the electric valve on the passenger side that opens and closes. He said I'm not sure what we can do with that since new piping will be installed there. Anyhow, what a nightmare. Some many guys here on the forum run this muffler without any install issues. Maybe I took it to the wrong place. Those that have had it installed who did your install? Were any issues that I mentioned above brought up?

Stopped by Maxi muffler and they said it can be done and doesn't require a special weld. Outlet pipes will have to be fabricated though. Quoted $300-400 which seems high based off others on here paying $150-200.
