[urq] SS exhausts

[Mike Fitton]

I still say we should make our own.  I bet if one of us knows how to 
TIG, we could make a really nice 3" turbo-back mandrel-bent 304 system, 
complete with cat, perforated-core resonator, perforated-core muffler, 
and a wide choice of tips for under $1200.  I push the 3" not so much 
for ultimate power levels, but for quick spool.  The difference in spool 
between my two urQs with a system similar to the one I describe and with 
a stock system is very noticeable, even though the turbos and power 
levels are about the same.

-Cheers!
