Has anyone installed a stainless Stebro exhaust? I want something that will last a while, I don't drive it during Michigan winters but still I like the idea of doing it once and never having to replace it again.
I've considered an S&S header setup, but I would want to have it ceramic coated. I've never used ceramic coating though so maybe someone out there can give me some direction here. :?:

hmmm $tainless $teel ! :D sounds great !

got a link to that ?

people have posted that the S&S exhaust is a bit thin on the tubing wall, but I haven't read any real complaints but that it rusts out faster than stock.

It's pricey, I know. But it would last and I'm a sucker for shiny things[url][/url]

sweet system ! if I was going to keep the WBX I'd get one. when my engine is diying, I want to go to a TDI or Subie.

I was a little short on funds last year. my GL needed a muffler, so my local exhaust pro installed a take off Honda Accord muffler,"stainless'"for $50.00. :D
Many new car owners, install trick systems on new cars, this one had less than 200 miles on it, had a nice throaty sound to it. Check it out..

:D They also used to make the header pipes also, but I think they stoped making them.. Veryb high quality stuff... I have not seen that perticular muffler, but they also make a stainless exact replica of stock muff and cat...

Oops, that link didn't really show everything.

I suppose a stainless muffler and cat coupled with an S&S header setup would do the trick. I wonder about getting stainless hangers made though?
