Why not just buy the sections individually from GSF or BW, depending on material preference?

Right....my TT system on a late 2.1 wbx no injectors, carb and no oil cooler.....doesn't have the straps around the silencer. I questioned this when it was fitted, and the garage said a) the old straps wouldn't fit, and b)the silencer was lighter and the straps weren't necessary. TT said exactly the same when I queried it with him.

All the details of available systems in all materials is in the wiki.

If your van is a keeper then stainless is the most cost effective way. Lifetime guarantee and no need to change it in 3-5 years when the mild steel one has gone rotten
