Default Anyone ever heard of a "aero" exhaust system for a Miata?

Got an opportunity to pick one of these up. Looks to be a 3" system. Anyone ever heard of them? Loud?

Found this site:

http://www.aeroexhaust.com/

But they don't list anything for a Miata???

Look almost like titanium?

Pics are below.

Worth a try, certainly. It might work out, you never know until you try it.

Post a sound clip.

it looks 2.25-2.5" tops and it doesn't look like it's for a miata.

it also looks like it will be a flow restriction and be loud.

I saw these on speed channel garage show w/sam memmelo. There's no packing in these things- it's chambered, just differently than a flowmaster that sends the exhaust bouncing off walls. My car spooled 200-400 rpm sooner across the entire boost range when I swapped out the flowmaster style muff for a turbo style glass packed muff.
