Was down at the scrap metal joint today getting some things and I came across this...

There was also another bin full of stainless steel exhaust systems and turbo fittings and turbo manifolds. It was all APS stuff. All rejects apparently. Most of the stuff was for WRX's, nothing Falcon related.....believe me I checked!!! lol.
