I've had a TT aluminized cat-back w/Ultraflow muffler for about 3
yrs/45k miles, and last year my cat was toast and flex joint leaking
(gee, imagine that) so I added the TT downpipe/cat.  All's good.  They
no longer use the factory-style flex joint on their downipe, but rather
some simpler setup that seems to work fine and hopefully isn't as
fragile.  Only complaint I have is I'd go with the Borla muffler as the
Ultraflow is kinda cheesy sounding...
