thank god you decided not to put that thing on. Who cares though if it was $18 or $100? Thats still $18 too much, now you know better for next time. remember, rice kills.

Yeah, I had one a few years ago with the 2.4, I was very suprised that it didnt have that pinging noise that I hear civics and acura's with it was nice and deep, but retardedly loud. constant drone always loud. always there just cruisin down the road. I ened up taking steel plates and making "silencers " for it, then it sounded better. the muffler itself didnt rust, the adapter I bought from the part store did, so yes it rusted and came off. not the mufflers fault though.

Why the hell would you put black rims on a white car? Because thats your preference smart ass...
I'm going to clamp this beast onto a beater and see how it sounds, but my guess is that welding this onto my Alero would cause the stainless steel to rust so I'd rather not.

a beater is going to sound very different from your alero, just clamp it onto your alero and when u find out its ricey drive around town with it and deal with it until you can afford to do the job right. on the bright side all the highschool girls will think your cool, you can pick up silent he will be waiting at the corner of your nearest highschool so you can go crusing for chicks

Sound different? Apparently you haven't seen my Alero haha, it's a bloody tank (second engine, 255k on body, second paint job, it's been to hell and back twice).
But anyway, I sold the muffler today for $100 plus a 24 of beer for me to weld it on. This leaves me with a profit of around $50 not including the $40 case of beer. I really don't want to weld such cheap stainless steel though, it's just going to rust... even if it went on my Alero I likely wouldn't want to weld it... and this isn't because I can't afford the $6 in oxyacetylene.
I'm debating now between a new exhaust or just selling this car as is and getting my dream ride... BMW M5
...high school girls? If I wanted any of those forbidden fruits I don't think I'd need a car to get them.

Ok I went back to Nova Scotia last week (I'm from there) and I couldn't find a 24 for less than $37, what the hell gives? In Ontario there's at least 5 brands that offer 24 beer for $24. Sweet jesus, a 30 pack of Blue in NYC was like $18!
