Why is everything so darn difficult?
I called Stainless Works early this AM my time and see they have a sale for $315 for the X pipe. When I asked him about the baffles inside he said he will check with Tech and why they have that as well my query to sell me one without and how much? I really don't see the purpose other than they are trying to quiet it down, but if there is a loss of power as I imagine then I'm not interested. I imagine there is also a loss of sound too then I might as well just keep the resonators. In addition, I am waiting to see if they will ship to me with other than FEDEX/UPS too.
On another note, here is the email traffic from Billy Boat Exhaust. So, at least I know they will sell me one for $340, but will not ship to me other than with UPS or FEDEX to Japan (probably about $100) my guess to ship it:

Hello Bob,
Okay, thanks. Is there any way to ship USPS to my FPO address here in
Japan? It is a US zip code from San Francisco, CA and rates are same like
shipping to CA. How much would it be via priority mail?
Thank you very much.

Question from the website:
Hello,
I bought an exhaust system from you several years ago for my 1990 Corvette
ZR-1 with LT5 and would like to replace the resonator with an X pipe. Can I
purchase it separately as a direct replacement?
Thank you,
Craig
