Well writing emails won't help!

The only negative I have experienced with a SS exhaust is a rather tinny sound (on an Aston DB4), but maybe that was a design issue.

I suppose car manufacturers could improve every part of their cars by throwing a few more dollars at them, but their goal is usually to reduce the cost of manufacture rather than increase it, and they probably don't really care, providing the parts last longer than the warranty period.

In fact the way some parts are made nowadays you could be forgiven for thinking they were designed to fail!
