Giugiaro Sports Exhaust?
Discussion
I bought a stainless steel silencer from SJS to replace my rusty standard box.
Very nicely made, only a bit noisier than standard. Makes a nice deeper note, but certainly not loud. Spits and pops nicely on the overrun.
Fitted a treat, but is about an inch smaller in diameter, which means that the straps will need a bit of fettling.
Recommended.

I fitted the SS 'box too,twice. They both sounded better but one sounded better than the other,guess that was just luck. Go for it. 
It never fails to baffle me though,that when we spend many ££,£££'s or $$,$$$'s on proper out and out sportscars, That a 'sports' exhaust is an add-on!
Always seems like a big con to me. I can understand that the buyer of say,a BMW,might not go for the sports exhaust on his sporty day commuter. But when i see cars such as Esprits and ferrari's being offered 'sports' exhausts, i wonder what the standard fit was classed as being.
Will probably find that the factory Esprit 'box was sourced from an old leyland tractor....

Sports Exhaust are add-ons, because regulation restrict noise and emissions on new vehicles. Once sold, the manufacturers can sell aftermarket products that don't have to meet the regulations of those on new cars.
I'm afraid their hands are tied by the do-gooders!
