[s-cars] Cat replacement options?

[jeff postupack]

Wylie:
thanks for telling Gary about this
Gary: I was able to establish sufficient interest to continue Stromung
production of the Stainless 3" turbo back, Gen 5 for our S cars.

IWylie is correct, there is a GB going on now, October.. so you might want
to consider this.  I'll send your the History of Stromung PDF off list and
contact you about pricing we reached and so forth.
