I flipped your car for you.

NOW it makes sense. Your first pic says "to muffler". It should say "from muffler"

Ugly yes but as it splits the flow in the opposite way that a merge/Y-pipe does, it's not hurting the flow. Most of the flow is gonna go towards the left tip.

I've never seen that before lol. So he chopped the stock muffler off and had to think of a way to make the pipes work?

What they should have did was split it like the loud mouth. It splits right as it comes I've r the axle, that way there's no radical bends. But whatever. Sounds good!

The idle is a little quiet too, getting headers to see if it helps with a real ory.

I would say my car would have never pulled out of the shop until it was fixed... But I would never see my car again.

That is horrible, I don't care what it sounds or flows like.

Well, I am putting on a real ORY and headers. Should I end up buying a new catback, like TSP rumbler? Or since this one shouldnt be hurting my flow any and I like the sound. Should I just keep this? Leave the ugly part out of it. Im talking about performance and sound. Only thing that really matters.
