BA XT Stock Exhaust M/S or S/S????

I went to a local muffler shop today and this guy told me that the standard ba falcon exhaust is stainless steel not mild steel. He had a territory in the shop lifted it up and showed me underneath and to my disbelief it was actually stainless he reckons the falcon and the territory have the same exhaust which i believe. But i really thought the falcon has a mild steel exhaust as i wanted to get one fitted. Please tell me if this guy is on drugs and i should go and get it fitted from another shop. He quoted me $450 for pacemaker headers and moving the cat.

Surefit exhausts quoted me $995 for a 2.5" redback catback system with tips
pacemaker headers and moving the cat.

Muffler Shop Mackay quoted me $1300 for exactly the same thing.

having said that i still think i will change the exhaust, but could someone clear up whether it is S/S or M/S.

Thank you in advance.

Cheers David
