Please identify this muffler for me.

I'm a fairly car noob guy and have never installed exhaust before in my life. Speaking of which, I found this muffler on Craiglist and was wondering if anyone can identify its specific name of it. Since it's Catback, is it safe for me to assume there won't be any kind of drone? also, the price seems somewhat decent even consider it's a used one but I'm not entirely sure about that either. I was literally about to purchase berk dual tech muffler delete but I found this instead. should I go for it? and are there any things that I have to look out when buying used muffler like this? thank you very much for helping car noob like me haha.

It's an FT86SpeedFactory exhaust.
http://www.ft86speedfactory.com/ft86...l#.WVY_V4TytjE
The resonator seems to be updated but that's what it is.
Not a TRD, not a Mazno.

(The last flange is a floating flange and in the Craigslist pictures it's just moved up the length of the pipe instead of being pushed back to the end as shown in the FT86SpeedFactory's online catalog)

Thank you. I just texted the seller if he know the name of that exhaust and he said no. also I asked if it was drone and he was like what is drone? so I assume he's even noober than me haha. if that is really the one that you are referring to, should I just go get that exhaust? I tried to find it's sound on YouTube but couldn't find one. it's $150 so I feel like this is bargain for what it really is ... I don't know

1. It is what I told you.
2. Really??? https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...ory+v1+exhuast

No one's going to tell you what you should or should not get, it's ultimately up to you.

I find it really weird that the guy selling it has no idea what the brand is nor knew what drone is. Leads me to believe that it isn't his car which means that he probably took it off someone else's car.

But for $150 it's worth taking a shot. If you're lucky the seller is just ignorant and has no clue what the true value of the exhaust is.

The seller is telling me that muffler was installed on his car when he bought the car from someone else. I asked why is he trying to sell that muffler and his response was 'I sold the car and stop hitting me up with dumb questions do you want it or no?' and I was like okay chill I just wanna make sure ... I'll go get it tonight... Hope it doesn't turn out bad ... will let you guys know after I buy it.

just like what @Silver Cervy said, something's little fishy. But its your choice and if I were you I'd at least go and take a look because it's only $150. I mean if that is really what @Joon525 said it is, the price is like $800+ on brand new. Obviously, its used but still its really cheap.

He definitely doesn't sound like a kind fellow. But like I said $150 isn't a huge loss if things go bad. It might have a small pipe crack or gasket leak, and on that matter I did not see the gaskets and screws pictured or mentioned anywhere in his post so they may not be included.

Honestly if he was asking for any more money I would've said to avoid him. I hate doing shady deals like this.

Truth. I do not see any gaskets/screws as well. Let's say he doesn't have this, then do I have to buy those separately from online? and what if it really has crack on a pipe? is that fixable as well? sorry I'm kinda worry just a little.

Cracks can be fixed but then you are dealing with welding and the cost shoots up. You should be able to get the required hardware from your local hardware store in most cases. The gaskets are a different story, they will need to be ordered.

Buyer beware, this sounds stolen to me.
