Muffler decision
My 99 has a muffler rattle at light throttle. Muffler shop verified loose baffles in both. EBAY shows polished stainless assemblies from $360 to over $1200. Why such a difference? Fit? sound? My current system is Flowmasters installed probably 10 yrs. ago.

Like everything else you buy, price points, quality...
A while back there was a system on ebay called Tico Taco?? Or something like that. Some scoffed at it, some purchased it.
IIRC those that purchased were quite pleased considering the price point paid.
Do a search, there were more than a few threads. Good Luck!

Quality has a lot to do with how exhaust systems are priced as well as the offered warranty and how well the company will stand behind the product.Before buying, check out the C5 Parts for Sale section and see what is being offered for sale. You might be able to find a set of say Corsa, Borla or B&B catbacks in very good condition at a good price.
