Don't discount Stromung components, especially the stainless steel parts.
And no I am not selling my dual-tip axle back...get your own.

I might have what you're looking for. It's a Magnaflow from a TurboXS set-up. When I get home tonight I'll take some pics and post them up for ya.

My apologies! As usual, the weekend arrived and other things start happening ... my one-track mind ends up forgetting what I did two minutes ago ... etc., etc.
So without further ado, here are some shots of the muffler:
As you can see, it's not in the greatest condition. The guy I bought it off decided he didn't like it so shiny (too much of a potential magnet for FFX cops) so he spray-painted it black. The spray paint didn't take so well and it's flaking off now. But in reality, you really don't see that part of the muffler anyway. And since it's really just a pipe, there's not much that can cause it to not work...
So, considering that it's not as pretty as other mufflers out there (and since I'd like to just get rid of it) I'm prepared to let it go for cheap. Honestly, I never installed it on my car as I found another exhaust that I liked better before I got a chance to install this one.

The reason that the paint flacked off is probably because he didn't sand the parts before hand (and paint doesn't stick to buffed surfaces). VERY easy to take care of

Just get some nice sandpaper, rub it till you get a brushed look on the metal and repaint. The paint should last a LOT longer like that. It's the same method that I used on my headers and everything else that I coated with Black Satin.

Let me know if you've had problems cleaning it up. Like I said, if it's not working out we can always come to an arrangement.
Then again, if it's worked out great, let's see some pics!
