4th Generation What is the right muffler for me?

I have a 2001 toyota camry I4 and i want to get a muffler to make it sound better but i don't want to spend like 200 bucks and then not like the sound. The main thing im worried about is that im gonna get it and then its gonna turn out to be a fart can. So what is the best muffler for my car?

I was looking into a magnaflow universal muffler but i'm not sure if thats the right choice

thanks for the help guys

Just look on ebay, believe it or not a lot of decent sounding ones can be found.

If you want a deeper sound, look for a larger size mouth, generally it will not be as raspy.

A lot of them tend to sound good if you still have a resonator pipe, if not fart can is what you'll get. Not sure if I4's have that. But yeah you-tube around, theres hundreds of videos on mufflers on camry's.

Yeah, plenty of videos on youtube. Not sure what kind of sound you're looking for. Low, deep, quiet, aggressive, etc?

I sprayed my car down before I took the video.

ya i just want it to sound more agressive and powerful (make my I4 sound like a v6) i want it to have just enough change you can notice it but not so much that people that havnt seen it before notice right away thst you must have got a muffler. I dont know its kinda hard to explain but i tried. thanks a lot for the feedback so far.

Too bad they discontinued them for the camrys. I think you gotta buy a universal one and have a shop custom weld it on. I think I only saw one TN member use a universal borla muffler, but the tip looked really ricey, but it sounded nice.

The trd muffler cost around $400 or so. So you just pay $200 extra for the TRD imprint.
