Exhausts - 4" stainless steel ?
Anyone know if there's a 4" stainless steel system available anywhere ?
(Marine grade if possible !!!)
I can find 4" plain steel exhausts, but standard steel won't last for very long in any of the countries I'll ever have my car in thanks to salty roads or salty air, and it'll give me 'room' to grow my emissions to a 3+ liter (or even a V8) later without replacing everything...

I think SFR will be willing to do one for you ..
other wise just have it made up .
I can't understand how they are so expensive i bought mine in pieces the muflers were 160 for both
and the tube and one 90 bend wich i cut in half and a joiner was about 50 in a scrap yard but its only about 100 new ..and from the starter back there would be about 3hrs work in it ..

4" SS exhaust
Alex at Fabspeed can hook you up. I've looked for a long time and I think this is the creme de la creme of exhausts! Scaping together the money myself to go for it.

I just don't get why people want to spend $1,000 or more on an exhaust and then to have it installed when the pipe can easily be sourced and then fabed up by a muffler shop. My 3" cat back pipe/muffler and labor = $350
But, to each his own.

Yes, but sadly, it's also not stainless steel which, while living in a coastal EU country, for me is a mandatory feature if I'm going to upgrade my pipes!
To me it seems to be a bit of a shame to have stainless steel at least as an option for everything, no matter which vendor is providing it, and not just some basic grade of stainless either, and while they're at it, why not add a titanium option to the mix...
