Exclamation XS-Power/SS Autochrome "high flow catted midpipe"

Figured I'd start a thread since I was looking at their manifold. It looks to me like its just a resonated midpipe not a high flow cat. Another interesting thing I found is that..XS POWER is pretty popular in the UK/Europe vs US. Anyway...*ding ding* have at it guys.

It looks good but how long will it last with all the heat cycles of a hot as.. rotary engine? For the price it might be worth a try. Nothing I would put on my 7 but that's just me. With my luck one of those welds would break when I'm really far from home.

TX SS Autochrome Turbo Back Exhaust

Didn't find a link to their race "cat" - and it looks just like a resonated Mid Pipe to me...

But they are selling this turbo back system that allegedly has this "race cat" in it - has anybody bought one of these - and is it a CAT or just a RESONATED midpipe?

That is mainly because real deal stuff is way to expensive/hard to get in Europe.
A site like Nengun is great, but their shipping prices for the EU are pretty steep.
Some other sites that are respected in the community treat people from out of the US like they don't need their business.
Instead of a webshop that instantly tells you what's up you have to send an e-mails and hope they get answered.
I once mailed a company and 2 months later I got an email from someone in my country, the shop had given them my emailadress so he could try and set up a small groupbuy with me.

Am I blind, or is the "race cat" not on that link at their website?

Everything I posted was straight from their website. ssautochrome.com (they are the same as xs power). Its not on xs power's website. I e-mailed them...its a highflow cat not a resonated midpipe. Im still considering buying it. I dunno
