To be brutally honest there are only two things I don’t like about stainless exhausts, first is the tinny noise it can make (sounds strange like small bell in the exhaust but you don’t notice it after a while) and second is if it’s not welded or supported correctly it’s prone to splitting welds but that’s where good Tig welders at the exhaust builders earn their money. I don’t have any flexi sections in my exhaust (I bought one just in case but didn’t use it) and so far it’s been about 14 months and all the Tig welds have held so I must have done a good enough job.

You mention tinny noise. Thank you.

There is a forum member in the 240 section whose stainless exhaust has a vibration. Apparently the known supplier says the outlet of the exhaust needs a small extension to fully clear the car body. I'm not feeling convinced.
