I have a Tecumseh OHH50 engine on my go-kart and I want it to go faster while spending little money. I already have the gear ratio that I want and was wondering if there are any mufflers that can make my engine sound nice and perform well while staying as cheap as possible.

Just build your own. All you need is some 1" tubing and a piece of flat bar. You use the flat bar to bolt the pipe to the head, that is, with the proper holes and welded stuff. Make the tube like 14" long for the maximum horsepower. It'll sound wicked sweet.
