Default Hartage cat-back, what do you think?

I have a line on a like new Hartage cat-back for my 96 ti Sport. It has a single wide round-end kind of oval outlet. Anyone had one or heard one? I Have used the stock muffller and I currently have a Bosal BroSpeed SS cat-back and am wondering how the Hartage would compare? Does anyone know if it is all stanless, or just the tip? I can get it for around $300.00 and wonder if this is a good deal?

Thanks,

David in Richmond, VA

I dont know dude, I know that BMP Design has a Hartge muffler new for $295. So I would think maybe you could get the cat back used for about the same or a little less?

Where are you in Richmond? And what color is your car?

I live in New Kent and work in Richmond.

Currently a very dirty and pollen covered Alaska Blau.

Where are you and what's yours like?

I think that I have the exhaust your talking about. The one I have isn't a catback though, it's basically an axle back (I think...)
It replaces the resonator all the way to the back.
Stock: [cat]==[resonator]==[muffler]=
With my setup: [cat]========[muffler]=
(Hope that makes sense to you)
It's just the tip thats SS and the rest isn't.
I like the exhaust though, the tip is unique and it isn't as loud as most exhausts, but you know its there.
I'll post pics later on today/ if I remember...lol

I remember when I first got it, I was wondering how I can get it on my car, so I called Supersprint/BMP and asked them what to do.
I think they sell a pipe that can connect to it.
I was just reading on your first post how you said you have "on the line a like new Hartge"
Ask the previous owner if he can give you the pipe along with the Hartge haha.
