Default Stock Exhaust system

When I got my stock mufflers hacked off I noticed the brand on them; Bosal. I remember reading in another thread of a 2000+ member that their exhaust guy said the stock exhaust was a good brand, but the member wasn't sure what that brand was. I found the brand on my stock exhaust, then did a little research and this is what i came up with..
