That's a single tip muffler, not a dual tip.
It looks GReddy-ish, but I doubt it sounds like a GReddy. It will likely be loud.

what are you looking for in a muffler? do you want that loud lawnmower sound or a deeper tone? if you want a dual heres one similar to what you were looking at.

i have one similar to the pic, except mine has 4" tips. it does get louder at high rpms, but it keeps the nice deep tone. if i had a choice i might goto no sound, but i love the look so oh well. and with the radio up i can rarely hear it unless im accelerating hard.

well personally i think mine sounds pretty deep. the guys a midas who live mufflers, said mine was alot better than even the expensive crap they were selling. i think its pretty deep, of course thats my opinion since i dont have much to compare to. but if itll help maybe i can record how it sounds and email you the mp3 or camouflage it as a jpeg and post it.

i dont know for sure, but if youre looking for that little extra hp, i would assume a dual would assist more. take for example, the difference between the 4th gen lx/ex is the 4-2-1 header, and a dual tip muffler... allowing for a higher release of backpressure.

take for instance the one you were looking at, 4.5". or that i know of the largest tip is 5". eventhough each tip is smaller, mine has two 4" tips allowing for more pressure to be freed up.
