I recently found a dent on my muffler canister, will this hurt my exhaust's performance or sound in any way?

oh, ok. Yeah, it shouldnt change anything unless it is like squished and closing off your exhaust...but you said it was a small dent, so it should be fine...Performance, and sound wise. Just might not look good, but thats about it.

For reals!!

It'll cause your engine to spontaneously combust, and chances of that are heightened when you have a cute girl shotgun. Better turn it over to me

is it a stock muffler? or you have aftermarket...like a prodrive axleback? If the latter, just give it to me!!! The muffler is TRASH now j/k.

I had a small dent on my stock muffler. And the only person who could see it was me. No performance problems.

I'll never have this problem because frankly, I don't have a muffler
