The bottom picture on this page is what I had on my car... pity the  
"straight through" stainless steel "turbo" muffler (as pictured) was  
a tea-strainer within a year!!!  The steel must only be millimeters  
thick - and "stainless"???

Anyway, the headers as shown (jet-hot coated) remain fantastic and  
remain on the car.

The rest of the exhaust system is two inch pipe straight through with  
two "bullet" type mufflers.  Yes, quite loud but also quite a nice  
racey sound that I believe quietens down at speed - not that I have  
heard the thing from outside the car at speed.

I have been convinced to follow the new philosophy of "Back- 
pressure?  What is back-pressure??".
