I was referring more to the bad design, not necessarily defective. The
GoWesty muffler is a performance motivated straight through design. You look
in one side and see through it. A great feature when the catalytic converter
self-destructs. Seriously, this unit seems well built and being stainless it
should last. The muffler and bracket bundle and the tailpipe is a reasonable
price.

No worse than a defective OEM muffler?  Pretty faint praise....
