I recently purchased the SS 3" with Magnaflow middle muffler. I purchased this setup for my turbo.
If you are purchasing this kit, there are a few things to keep in mind:
First, it will be loud in its original form. In the range of 2,200-2,600 RPMs, it was painful to the extent that I had to literally wear earplugs. Moreover, I've never felt the need to take side streets to avoid the police like I did when I had it in that form. Eventually, the addition of a turbo and two more mufflers after the split quieted things down but be forewarned that stock trim is not exactly streetable nor for the faint of heart.
Second, be aware that Stainless Steel is difficult to work with. many muffler shops will not be able to weld it and even if they can, cutting or bending it (to add more mufflers or to correct fitment) will be very difficult, if not impossible in some cases.
Finally, the fitment was atrocious. One muffler extended too far while the radius for one of the bends was so tight, it would not even fit. As another said, the hangers were also out of place. Given the fact that it was stainless steel and all but impossible to bend on even the muffler shop's machine without cracking the pipes, the muffler shop had to "Frankenstein" by cutting and rewelding, at one point using an aluminized piece. Not something that your average backyard mechanic can put together with ease.
The upshot is that it's high quality stainless. It has a beautiful mirrored-like finish. The mandrel bends are also excellent. Unfortunately, given the age of the car, fitment issues and the difficulties I encountered installing it (and consequent added installation cost), I would not recommend this kit.
