label on the tip says Works... it's probably a Works

Looks like the resonator is a bit revised now but I believe you have one of the earlier ones.

Yeah I was looking at that. I'm going to ask a very stupid question... Us the exhaust system the same as the labeling of the muffler? Is the muffler apart of the exhaust?

The muffler is part of the exhaust. What you have posted is an Axle back, meaning you have a stock exhaust system except for the muffler (unless other parts have been changed but not pictured).

This might help give you an understanding of how the cars exhaust system is setup.

Definitely helps. Can just changing the muffler make it sound amazing? Cause it does. A friend say it might be something called ARI exhaust system, bit when I googled that, I found nothing....

Never heard of ARI. Changing the muffler will change the overall exhaust note. If you change anything else down the line (particularly headers) it will get louder.

Edit: actually, reading the Works site says this is not a muffler but a resonator, so basically it is a muffler delete with a resonator to keep the sound down.

Hmm that's interesting. I know this car has post stock exhaust, how do I find out what it is? Where would I look under the car???

I wish I had a car encyclopedia brain

Seeing how you have an axle back it is safe to assume you have the stock mid-pipe. You would need to look under your car to see if you have the stock front-pipe. It will look like the drawing above with that little box near the front-pipe to mid-pipe connector.

As for the header, just pop your hood and look in your engine bay for the shinny metal shroud that covers the stock headers. You should be able to see it toward the front of the engine bay. If you have aftermarket headers they will not be shrouded, but may be wrapped or coated.
