   ordered my exhaust yesterday, ive gone for the piper 3.5" inward rolled! was planning on going for the stainless steel one but it was more than i thought and didnt have enough money on me so went for the mild steel one! their much difference apart from the fact the stainless one would last longer?

   Well not really,
   
   Stainless steel will be a tad lighter and will resonate making it slightly more noiser but just a back box not sure youd be able to tell.
   
   Dont expect to see any kinda of gain from just a back box but the looks and the sound will easily make up for that.
   
   Where did you order from?
