Walker Exhaust or Starla Exhaust??? 700

1986 Volvo 740GLE -- 148,000 miles

Oh my, people never cease to amaze me.

So. I ordered a Starla exhaust system (catalytic converter back), it came promptly, and I seemed pleased. I installed the system, easily, and all the pipes fit great. Then I went to take the "Starla" sticker off the muffler, and it peeled off to reveal a "Walker" exhaust manufacturers sticker!!! Wow. So, I don't know if this thing is Starla or not, but I did notice that the tail pipe diameter is 2", and the previous muffler seemed bigger, but it was an aftermarket piece from Midas (previous owner). So, here are my questions.

1) Is Walker of equal quality to Starla?

2) Is the tailpipe diameter 2" stock?

3) It was only $125 with free shipping, compared to $200 for a so-called "Starla" from other sites, should I just keep it??

Any advice is welcome and appreciated

Brandon
