I’d argue to the stock muffler, which works fine on an 11 second tune only truck, is probably meeting all 3.
Fast, cheap, reliable: pick one, not two. Same goes for good, fast, and cheap. I think the days of having the luxury of picking two are over.

Though your point regarding the oem muffler is a pretty good compromise.

Do you take every analogy literally or just this one? Not being able to have your cake and eat it too must be really confusing

I’m sorry English is so confusing, nothing I can do there.

Calling someone cheap, who has spent a bunch of
money, which clearly was not the concern, to prove your “theory” correct, only to find it false, is far less confusing to the rest of us.

Feel free spend a fraction of what I did, and quantify it to prove me wrong, instead of memes, insults or platitudes, which really just make you look petty and juvenile.

Or are you “cheap”?
