don't know if this is true or not....write Mitch at Protege5Online and ask.....and the other options would be an axle back system like the mazdaspeed exhaust.....OR get a decent muffler and go to a reputable muffler shop and have a system MADE for you...actually that is cheaper than buying one.

I'm willing to bet that for $250 you are getting compression-bent non-302 stainless pipes that don't have proper flanges and are not welded with stainless wire.
But I could be wrong...

I ordered my Bosal system about 4 weeks ago from A.R+D and the guy told me that it will probablly be in late June. THAT REALLY SUCKS! I ordered it to keep me busy untill I go to driving school (www.racingadventures.com) in early Aug. I don't know if I can handle this. Ok im done.
