supersprint exhaust

The Supersprint header is pretty awesome I have one on my 16v...It's
really a work of art..BUT it's costly. I've heard that the TT race down
pipe breaks easy, but I can only speak for the SS header (When engine
was in 87 roc it sounded nice). I have TT for the rest of the exhaust
now and haven't been able to use it (project not complete---81 Roc)...

Does anyone else here have the supersprint exhaust sys. for their mkii
16v ? I've got this:

http://www.supersprint.com/a_prodotti.asp?modello=vwsci6

884203 Centre exhaust w/ the 884226 Rear exhaust MAGNUM O 100 

I've got an old techtonics manifold/header..the piping is too long
to work correctly with the supersprint centre exhaust, so for the last
year and 
a half I've been running without a CAT (to make room).

Just recently on a trip across the states my header split in 
half (!) at the manifold weld. Here's a picture:

Luckily it broke where it did instead of at the downpipe
weld--so it rested on my lower sway bar.

I say luckily because I still had about 800 
miles left on the trip and not enough cash/time to fix it on the road. 

Anyways. I'm looking for recommendations really.. I figure I could get a
stock 16v header
to replace it which would let me install it correctly w/ a CAT. The
Supersprint header
is pretty slick, but I really don't have the means to drop 300+ on a
header right now.

there's some more pics @ http://www.plosive.net/exhaust/

If anyone has any ideas or is selling a 16v header, let me know.

There's 1 on ebay, but its just the manifold and not the full header...
