Exhaust on SA model

[amrg]

This is a question for those with South African Models. Im planning to order a Borla performance exhaust for my Alpha, and I wana know if anyone of you had any fitment issues with any aftermarket exhausts on those models. I asked Borla and they themselves dont know.
Basically do any aftermarket exhausts for the Alpha fit on all Alphas? Or are they origin specific (US vs SA models)

Im planning on getting the exhaust direct from Borla, as I couldnt find any cheaper on ebay...

Borla is a very good company to work with, and their parts hold up for a long time. I installed Borla headers on my K1500 when Borla was still a start-up company in Oxnard, Calif. The oxy sensor was in the wrong orientation on the dr. side header. I drove down to Oxnard and one of their welders corrected it on the spot. I'm still using those headers on my truck after twenty years. I've re-installed the headers on the new (to the truck)-used engine I'm currently installing on the truck now.

If it was a matter of just driving to them to fix it It wouldnt have mattered alot, but Im gona be shipping halfway across the world, I dont wana go through that to end up with a part that wouldnt fit on my vehicle. I personally believe that there shouldnt be any issues, but then I'd rather ask someone that has done something like this before I go through the whole process and find out on my own.
And yes the Borla products seem really good. I have a friend who has one installed on his 6.2 Hemi Wrangler, I love the rumble it gives on his car, although I understand that Im not gona be getting it on the Hummer, and thats what Im generally looking for.

All Alphas were built in the US. The SA plant only built H3s with the 3.7.

I just re-checked my VIN using an online site. Last time I did it manually and got the SA for it. Here is my VIN for the Alpha, ADMEN13lx94493603
If you check on this site, http://www.vindecoder.net/?vin=ADMEN13lx94493603&submit=Decode , you get its also SA built in 09.

My truck is Left hand drive, its an Alpha, Base with sunroof. It has a chrome grille, door handles, black side steps, rails and fuel cover. It only has a V8 badge on the rear and no Alpha badges in the interior. None on steering or the seats.
