I used to swear by the bursch units, but the last two I installed were pure junk. Paint was still wet in the box, and they beat up the muffler with a ball peen so the outlet would fit which was totally unnecessary. The outlet had plenty of room to clear if they just turn it a little bit. There was a hole in the top of the muffler I could stick my hand in after 2 months of service. I've bought my last bursch! I chased an "exhaust leak" on one car for three months that caused popping on decel. Cut the muffler off and replaced it with a $20.00 muffler from pep boys. Popping disappeared.
