I have found over 25 years of dealing with "The Mufflerman" that they are
very price competitive and only do the work that is necessary.

There are other muffler shops that will really run you through the wringer
as I have spent time with an ex manager of a Speedy shop.

As far as brand names go - unless you go to a stainless steel system they
all pretty well last the same length of time.

Just my opinion.

If you have the money--get the Honda muffler. If you want to save money
and have some free time--visit various muffler shops for free estimates.
After you find the best deal, let them install it for you.
