You can put either of the AT or MT mufflers on your car no problem.

The GT500 uses the stock GT mufflers for the automatic. Seller isn't necessarily defrauding, if they are off the GT500 that is true it's just that they aren't any different. I picked up a set off a GT500 for a very good price so if the price is right (i.e. no more than you would pay for a GT take off) then go for it.

Cool, thanks for the info.

So why then are they different mufflers for AT vs MT....does it give a different sound? One better than the other?

Does anybody know the part number for an '08 GT muffler? Does 8R33-523Z-FA sound right? Would that be for an AT or MT? .....db157, where are you?

So which mufflers does a manual GT500 use? Are they the same as GT MTs?

The GT500 is only made with a manual transmission and up until the current model year they used the automatic GT mufflers.

From what I recall reading MT gt mufflers sound a bit more agressive then AT ones. Both are too quite for me...
