Default Which Muffler

Hey gents I'm about to order a FM super44 and probably put it on myself. All I want to do is cut out the stock and add the new. But I can't decide if I need a off set/off set. Center/off set center/center. I've looked at my stock muffler but it's hard to judge. I don't want my tailpipe jacked cause of the wrong offset.

you will need to add tail pipe due to the fact that the FM will be a lot shorter that the OEM muffler...

Right. But I need the outlet of the muffler to line up with my stock tail pipe. So after I add the extension pipe in to make up the difference of the shorter muffler my tail pipe out the rear doesn't look all crooked. I would just take it to a muffler shop if they didn't want $60 to install it.

Pretty sure mine is center in/ center out. I'll check when I get off work.

I have a flowmaster on mine and it is center in/center out. I originally had a single in/single out, but I now have a single in/dual out. Either way both were center in and the single was center out and I had no issues installing it myself and having it fit.

I've watched hours of YouTube videos and not a single one showed pictures of the muffler installed unless it had duals. I just want my stock look with a little rumble.
