Default AMUSE R1000 exhaust review

Hey guys,
I just installed R1000 exhaust from amuse.
This exhaust is single exit exhaust constructed using titanium.
It weighs roughly around 13lb.
When I was placing an order with AMUSE head office located in Tokyo, Japan, I was told that this exhaust is very loud and circuit use only.
However I kind of knew how loud this exhaust would be due to straight flow design, so proceeded ordering with them.
The delivery took exactly 14 days from the date of payment was made.
Today, I went to customs to clear my duties and taxes so that my shipment could be picked up from a warehouse located a block away from the customs.
I paid $1800 for the exhaust(including airfreight to Vancouver airport) + $150 for the duties and taxes(13% tax here in British Columbia) + $180 for the installation(charcoal filter had to be removed from its original location and then relocated to the center of the vehicle and this process required custom made bracket.. the guy at the shop literally created a state of art bracket).
Video clips will further explain what the exhaust is like..
The first clip is first start after installation.
The second clip is revving up to 4000rpm after properly warmed up.
The last clip is revving up to 5000rpm outdoor to get the actual loudness of the exhaust.
My camera is kind of crappy for taking videos..
This exhaust sounds very unique, somewhat exotic AND LOUD.
AND THE BUILD QUALITY IS FLAWLESS... COMING FROM A RX-8 OWNER, I HAD RE-AMEMIYA PRODUCTS ON MY OLD CAR, THEIR PRODUCTS ARE FLAWLESS, BUT THIS ONE IS EVEN BETTER!!
Please enjoy and tell me your opinions

Damn sure seems loud. Really unique sounding. It almost reminds me of a Duramax diesel at points. Sounds good!

Really nice! Good luck with it.

Do you have plans for the back bumper at all?

It's nice to see someone go against the grain.

That's sounds real nasty..... I like it! Puts me in mind of the Meistershaft exhaust.
Who did your install?

Sounds like Honda Ricer... total fail

Sorry dude... waste of money if you ask me. And also, what do you plan on doing with the rear bumper... or are you going to just leave the other hole empty?

I'm gonna be slightly biased here but I like my R1 Extra a tad more, the R1000 is too raspy for me. Cool deal that Amuse got it out in 2 weeks though! Good deal, enjoy the exhaust! Definitely gonna be one of the rarer setups around.

Congratulation, Sounds amazing. Definitely one of a kind.

I'm going single at some point, But it's really hard for me to do it after the amazing F.I. exhaust.
