OBX Muffler

i am getting an OBX muffler installed this week and was wondering if anyone knew what one sounded like. it was pretty cheap and i am worried it is going to sound very "ricey". does anyone know what it sounds like? is it a deap tone or a junk one? how loud is it? would there be anything to do to not make it too loud? thanks for the help

I have a OBX N1 lookalike and it's cool for the money. It's not tinny sounding ( like a weedwacker). It's low and smooth. Not loud at all. Hardly noticeable on the freeway.
