Magnaflow Catback Stainless Grade

I just recently purchased a Magnaflow Quad Tip Catback for my 98 T/A. Does anyone know what grade of stainless steel is used in the piping. I used a magnet and it stuck to pipes pretty good (....it must be 304........the lowest grade). I tried the tips.......it wouldn't stick to them.

Anyone know?

No thanks.....lol......I'll stick with the quads. I love them!
Here's the reply I got back from Magnaflow.

MagnaFlow uses 300 grade stainless for our mirror finished tips and muffler shells and 400 grade stainless on all of our tubing and mufflers. 400 grade stainless contains some carbon and iron content which makes it magnetic.
