I was look'n on ebay and found this. Anyone else come across anything like it? Here

seems to be a good deal if it really is the same quality as a flowmaster.

You get what you pay for - they may LOOK like flowmasters - but how many people buy mufflers for looks.

I looked into this when I bought my Flowmaster.. They said they are having a lot of problems with cheap knock-offs. They also said dont trust the box it comes in. I ended up going to keystone to get mine.

I had one on mine. Lasted about a year and a half and the rear end rotted out of it. Buy the real thing.

I had the same problem on my last muffler too. This time I drilled 3 little 3/32 holes into the bottom of the muffler (ie one in each of the different chambers) to let the water drain out. Hopefully, this will add a few years to its life.
