Muffler question, with pic :)
Okay so,
I have 2 civics. One, let's call her, green civic, doesnt run. The other, lets call her whitey, runs liek a charm but now has a large hole in the exhaust and is very loud.
Now, when green civic ran, the exhaust sounded fine, so I assumed the muffler was all good. Since green cvici doesnt run I was just going to take the muffler off it, and put it on whitey.
But today it was nice so I took it off, and it seems to have a few tiny holes, but it's 10 times better shape than whitey's muffler.
So, judging by the pic, do you think I would be ok if I just got the repair kit from Canadian tire and jsut patched up the tiny holes it has and put it on whitey, or should I stop being a jew and just buy a brand new one ?
Thanks

Ok so a couple more questions..
1) Is it okay for me to just unbolt mine and bolt the other one on ? Or do I have to put some sealant in so that I don't get an exhaust leak or something?
2) Should I reset the ECU or something after I install it since I was probalby running rich with the big hole in my exhaust or should I not worry about it ?

Thanks bbarbulo!
Uhh one last thing (i swear ) will the muffler off a coupe or hatch fit my sedan? I'm hoping that all the mufflers are the same just the piping before them is different but I want to make sure.
