There are several different makes of the stock mufflers and they 
differ in construction details. Some of them are much better 
performing than others. If you have a loose one laying around, it's a 
good one if you can stick your finger in one of the upper input ports 
and feel that the pipe continues inside the main muffer body and 
takes a turn toward the middle of the muffler.

On the poor ones, those upper pipes end at the muffler body outer 
wall.

The good ones provide equal length pipes for all 4 cylinders.

The best ones are also made from heavier steel. They weigh more.
