Sounds like a flowmaster, probably flows a little better than the stock muffler but dont expect much, id say 5 horses maybe 10 if it flows really good.

Id say its a good deal though.

I replaced the stock muffler with a Magnaflow single in/out muffler, still stock manifolds and cats. Based on my track times I probably gained about 10 or so rwhp. Of course a Magnaflow is a completely wide open design, not sure about the Spintech, I think that is a traditional baffled muffler. But if you don't want to spring for a full catback and can get a decent muffler and tips for $40 I say go for it.

Try LS1sounds.com and see if they have sound clips.
