[s-cars] recommendation and source for cat back exhaust system

[kbogach at comcast.net]

Chris, I am fine with stock exhaust but flanges on catback side ( at converter ) are rotten as well as the welding where pipe joins mid muffler(rear end). Is it something which can be fixed for another year or three? Or has to be replaced? I looked at the Stromung site - don't see cat-backs, only turbo-backs. Also, only 3'' are available. Does it mean I have to change converters? 
Does new stock mean Audi dealer? 


Thank you. 
Konstantine

Konstantine, 

the stock system while heavy is very efficient; main gain by changing exhaust is a "better" sound. 

Based on the cars I've seen/heard, you won't obtain that benefit from a cat back. 

I would either stay stock or go stromung.
