Get stainless steel.

www.understeer.com has Stromung for our car.

Not sure if you're referring to Supersprint when you say aluminized but the Stromung strikes most people as loud. Some like it, some don't.

The cheaper supersprint exhaust has aluminized internals. The full stainless steel supersprint is almost 900$ as you also have to buy the extra hookup pipe as they just use a standard muffler with different pipes to connect to the cat. But the availability for the supersprint mufflers is very low in the US for the Ti. I was not able to find a full stainless last year. Somebody else said they had found 1 or 2 of them available just recently.

The best priced full stainless is the stromung, but you may also have problems getting them as they said they were doing away with the jig after the last group buy. Probably the best and cheapest bet right now is to find a full stainless generic muffler and have a muffler shop weld up something for you.
