I had the old Trust exhaust when the muffler was flat black. I agree, they made some good stuff.

Looks like they went through a re-org in 09

Bankruptcy/Reorganization (Minji-Saisei-Hou)
According to various reports, by 2008 TRUST was approximately $60 million in debt and, after reporting a serious decline in sales since February 2008 and amassing $43 million in loan payments, they filed for Minji-saisei-hou in Tokyo District Court on September 10, 2008, the U.S. equivalent of a Chapter 11 reorganization plan. The U.S. division was unaffected by the bankruptcy.[1]
It wasn't until March 2009 that TRUST Co. LTD had successfully completed reorganization through Minji-saisei-hou
