I think that the 80 series is the best sounding flowmaster muffler. It is deep but not to loud.

you are right it won't, you can't just throw a cheap muffler on a car and expect a sweet ass exhaust note....... |

comparatively, the flowmaster is a cheap way out compared to a good full exhaust setup including a quality set of headers so yes.....
flowmaster is cheap...... |

I have a catback exhaust with an 80 series muffler and it cost me like 90 bucks for the muffler. I forget the cost of the manderl bent exhaust pipe but the total cost was just over 300 bucks

I have an 80 series on mine with 2.5" from the cat back ... waiting a bit for some headers and a nice cat 
The only issue I have is that the 80 tends to drone during highway driving ... but it doesn't really bother me that much.

Get a resonator, almost all aftermarket mufflers drone at highway speed on their own.
