I do not know about the muffler, but I had two intermediate muffler pipes -- one Starla and one OEM (one for my car, one for my wife's). I can definitively say that they are not the same. The Saab part had stickers that said "Made in England", and it looked better: the welding seams were filed flush and smoothed, whereas starla's seams were course and protruding. The Starla part said "Made in Sweden".
For what it's worth, on this type of part -- a metal pipe, basically -- I do not think that would make any difference in practical use.
These exhaust components do rot out on me every 3 years or so. Next time I would just go with stainless.
