if a buddy of mine has a N1 stlye muffler that was on a honda, can i cut it off and use it for my 240? or is there something different?

You just gotta relocate the hangers. This better not be on a stock exhaust

While I guess it wont sound terrible. The thought if just changing the muffler without any piping makes me sick.

With all the cutting and jank ass pipe work you're going to do you can buy a cheap full catback that bolts right on, fits right, and looks a million times better.

Agreed. It is pointless unless you work at a muffler shop or something so you can get the piping done for free or nearly free.

i knew a guy who got a stock evo intercooler for free, then spent $600 getting custom piping and brackets made so he could put it on his s14

he coulda had a greddy for that price that fit perfect

or even an ebay intercooler. some of those are not bad at all, and are under $200

point is, take a step back and don't be excited to get free shit that might end up costing more money and time than buying something meant for your car.
