Look through the Super Street buyer's guide...I can't remember the company name, but there's a new one making a TL replica. Apex'i World Sport is a quiet exhaust too.

dont get it if you plan on having it for too long.... i got mine cuz i had no job and no income...... so i had to bargain..... it sounds great but i think mine is already kinda wearing outon the inside..

i didnt expect long life though, so im cool with it

my buddy has a real Mugen exhaust, and his didn't last long neither. that's why I'm going with something not stainless, but I'll have the whole thing cermic coated maybe... if the $ flow is ok.

Could the twin loop wear out because the exhaust is flowing through it twice? Or were you talking about it wearing on the exterior?

I have a world sport with 2.38" mandrel bent piping w/ resonator and its very quiet. Slightly louder than stock; my intake makes much more noise than the exhaust.
