from what ive seen powerflow use a low grade SS, ive seen mild steels systems looking in better condition than theirs.
Longlife seems to be the best alternative, apart from miltekPearl white 91-S2-3B K&N cone air filter - Home made induction pipe work - 18" RS4 replica alloys - Yokohama Parada Spec 2 rubber - Colour coded body work - Bilstein/H&R suspension - s/s 3in turbo back Longlife exhaust - SFS water hoses - Samco boost hoses - RS2 FARB - RS2 eyeballs - Squeaky interior trim

Apparently they use a low grade stainless. Longlife is a better option and we can get discount if we use the Leeds branch

Try to stick a magnet to your exhaust. That'll tell you something about the grade of stainless.SSComment

Do not use powerflow, they use grade 409 steel which rusts after a month. Also all there back boxes are pre built and have they have to modify them to get them to fit on the various cars. Avoid like the plague
Longlife use 304 or 309 grade which is what you want.Comment

The Milltek coupe system is 2,5 inches wide (ca 65mm) the avant system is 3 inches (ca 76mm) this is because the clearence issues over the rear subframe for the coupe. The avant exhaust goes under the subframe.94' RS2 Coupe TT (Twin Torsen )Comment

There is no "off the self" 3 inch exhaust for the Coupe.
The best you can buy is 70mm at www.bn-pipes.de Cat-back systems is close to 1200€ though.
Anything else has to be custom made.
If you are planning on over 330 bhp you need a turbo back system bigger than 2,5 inches. At least 70mm
If you want to stick to stock car or Home fry (ca 280 bhp) the standard system is ok and the Milltek will give you some more hp but mainly better sound.
Think what you want in the end before you buy.
