Stock muffler performs and sounds great, but weighs a ton. Plus, NOS muffs are hard ($$$) to find, so most people who AX, or dont want to spend the bucks go with a Bursch (cheap, sounds "ok" and gives pretty good performance") Not sure about Sebring, but I have a feeling they are below average (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

I have one. It was the perfect exhaust to pull a frankenstien on. I cut out the muffler (mine was the cherry bomb "sausage" type) replaced it with a straight pipe and put a 10" stainless supertrapp in the end. Works like a champ and sounds anywhere from full blown Lemans (un corked) to a nice tame daily driver. Adjusting the discs also means adjusting the carbs however.
Mine was OLD. It looked old when I bought the car in 94. I make sure and kepp it painted up - no rust to date - and being that I removed the part that usually gets blown out over time, I figure it should last for quite a while. We have been having some pretty long discussions within the Colorado yahoo group about Jet Hot Coating - I may take the plunge on having that done...

Scott I did a similar Fab on a Monza muff as an experiment turned a quad into a double, gave it a subtle more refined sound.........I still like stock when it comes to muff's. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif)
