cheap replacement muffler
i need to replace my muffler but not too deep on my pockets, would the below universal be good enough and would i need to get add'l parts or generally the welding/muffler shop has them?
i can get a magnaflow #12158 for $70, what's your guys and gals opinion.

Get an econo job at a muffler shop, shouldn't cost too much. There are a lot of e30 enthusiasts running relatively cheap mufflers that are happy about them.

if the link did not work (it did for me) go to auto zone, and put part number #87707,hopefully u will see the muffler i am talking about.
there is a local guy selling that magnaflow muffler (it's the muffler only, will need to be welded), but he told me that the muffler is loud on it's own (since it's a free flow), i will need a resonator, with that i am looking at around 90-$100
