Sorry, no.  you might check the family album to see if the p/n are the same 
or different.
Related thought:  I once spoke with a tech at Borla, inquiring about 
systems for the 4kcsq.  This was back in the late 80s when they were still 
new, but few exhaust systems needed replacement then, so very limited 
market.  At any rate, his comment was that they were having (then) a tough 
time improving on the factory system.  Interesting.
