Up to you, but a good mild steel brand will be aluminized and won't rust anyway. The Manta ones are all aluminized, the one that I know about that lasted the longest was 5 years before the guy sold the car and after that I don't know, but it was still good when he sold it.

The Manta 2 1/2" stainless is $1795 shipped. Not the cheapest, but as I said, their mild steel systems still last for years.

Subjective is the word of the day when talking about exhaust note. I had an xforce 3" on my 09 GTS and it was good, especially when the taps were opened in city limits. Its like music and food.. some people like what others dont.. personal preference.

I'm pretty sure the first two you listed are from a Holden wrecker. That should explain why they were removed.

Is there much difference in sound compared to stainless steel?

Stainless can sometimes be raspier and not quite as deep, but it also depends on the car. Personally, I like the sound of mild steel.

How much would a 2.5 inch mild steel manta be delivered to Adelaide? Also at 100 is it simmilar to standard exhaust note in cabin? Do a loft of country driving and wife will hate any noise

$1295 delivered for the quiet system. Still a nice note, but quiet on cruising and no drone.
