hello welcome to the forums.
In my opinion, i don't know if that will sound good or not. Its pretty cheap and u get what u pay for. The best thing to do is to save up a little more and get something that u know will sound good. That muffler looks like it will be really loud. Its a staright through design and also canister type. If u like loud mufflers i think u should get an apexi N1. There is a guy that is selling one on this board. His name is TurboCL4show. Give him an offer.

Hey, has anyone ever tried slightly modifying the stock mufflers?
When I had a bike, the mechanic told me to drill a tiny hole (1/4") on the back end of the stock pipe, if I wanted slightly better performance while I was saving up for a custom pipe.
It worked a little bit, so I tried drilling another hole back there and that caused too much loss in back pressure and made the bike run rich, so I pluged the second hole back up. So, there's a bit of rhyme and reason there.
