| Where to buy aftermarket muffler locally?
the exhaust is way too f'in loud right now. i want to buy an aftermarket muffler thats much quieter but is still performance.
2.25" inlet. Borla or something similar

You probably want to go custom and so it's not so ugly, an aftermarket tip. IMO get it done right at a muffler shop, and just weld a new axel back to the custom piping so you don't sacrifice a nice sound/looks either.

the muffler itself could be purchased anywhere, its the piping that can be custom.
