Default Help me identify this muffler? (pic) - SOLVED

Hey guys, noob question here
Can anyone tell me what muffler this is?
It was on the car when I bought it from the stealership, and I just assumed it was stock for the longest time - but then i saw a pic of the stock one, and this isn't it..
What do you think?

EDIT: Solved! It is a Dynomax.

Could be a Flowmaster 80-series. Looks like it has the correct welds, seams, and case-size for an FM80.

You are correct though, that it's definitely not stock.

If you can take it off the hangers and drop it down, if its a flowmaster itll say it on one of the sides.

Thanks for the replies guys, I kind of suspect it might be a knockoff because it doesn't really sound like any of the flowmaster samples on ls1sounds or youtube.

Oh well, I don't mind it for now. I'll check out the top of the muffler when I do headers and exhaust work this summer.

Looks a lot like mine, which I am assuming is a flowmaster 80 series because it sounds like the clips I've heard.

well here it is if anyone is interested; it was a dynomax.

sidenote: what do you think this muffler and tips are worth? I'm probably gonna put it up on craigslist.
