Default Borla Exhaust

I received my Borla exhaust today but have a question. The model I purchased is model 140038 that is a quad round tip s type exhaust. I don't want to sound like a total idiot but is this what you refer to as the Borla Stinger? I don't find anywhere that they are called stinger or is there a different model that is called the stinger. Thanks for your help and please don't flame me for asking this question.

What's it look like? If it's the smaller "can" muffler then yes it's the Stinger. Borla called it that when it first came out, but apparently the name was trademarked so they officially changed it, but the name stuck.

Here's mine...
