I have a TSSC Stainless Sports exhaust and manifold - very pleased 
with it indeed and looks great, sounds even better. - go through a 
tunnel at 5000 rpm and it scares the life out of all the other 
drivers - even better when there are two Spits with the same system 
in the same tunnel!!!!

PS It also came with fitting kits etc.
