Opinion...
My set-up doesn't really sound like a glasspack. Its not nearly as loud but it has a very deep rumble to it.

they sound like *** on honda civics. But on an engine that wasn't born in a peatree dish they sound pretty decent.

The reason I run a glasspack is they are small(therefore wont get hit) and if they do get hit, they are tough enough to survive.

I ripped off two regular mufflers on mild trails but once the glasspack went on i never lost another one. And can't beat 30$ for an almost indestructible part.

If you have only heard one then don't be saying it sounds like ****. I've heard about 5 and I didn't like them much but mine sounds different, but that's also MY opinion.

I like the sound I had with mine but the MAIN reason I did was simply the strength.

Its nice that I like it though. lol

Got video? I had mine for about a year and had one on my Ranger for 3 years without an issue.

Also how long did it last?

I thought my cousin's 2000 with glasspack was too loud, but i dont like loud vehicles for DD and trail rigs so thats my opinion. Reminds me of the biker episode of south park lol

it lasted i think 3 or 4 years and its hard to capture the sound on a video camera. just think about a straight pipe with holes in it

Ouch, yeah that doesnt sound pleasant. I'll make sure to change the glasspack before it gets too bad.
