Cars that run full straight pipes usually suffer from a lot of rasp, the Meisterschaft is possibly just as loud but its a clean sound.

actually if the welds are top notch (which it looks like they are), the base metal will crack or rip apart before the weld does. welding actually increases the strength of metal

Good to know. Still, this damn thing has to be something crazy like $4500

midpipes retail for $1500 each (x2) + 3K for the can = 6k exhaust

i love this exhaust, but unless you get 50 horsepower off of it, the price to hp ratio is bad

It still looks like...

I'll put this setup on the list of things to buy when I become a baller.

:-/

Almost as bad as that quote I got for a set of wheels for a "good" price of $7500. lol

I know many of us are distracted by the assumed astronomical price of this piece, but on a serious note, does anyone else agree that unless you weigh less than 165-175 lbs it really doesn't pay to spend crazy money on "weight reduction" mods such as this? I mean, unless you really get into it and are overhauling tons of parts, the biggest weight reduction mod is free! It's the driver!

I make money staying 200-225. It's cheaper to buy lighter parts

What's it weigh?

Ti Muffler- 12.1 pounds
Ti Y pipe- 6.6 pounds
Ti Mid pipe- 6.6 pounds

compared to the SUS system

SUS Muffler- 22 pounds
SUS Y Pipe- 12 pounds
SUS Mid pipe- 12 pounds

Titanium unit pricing goes like this

Ti Muffler- $2,998
Ti Y Pipe- $1,498
Ti Mid Pipe- $1,498

With the quality of the welds on the exhaust the inside is virtually like a smooth single pipe.

Titanium is very brittle compared to regular steel, so bending it to our requirements wasn't an option. Each individual piece is bent to the maximum amount before it is welded to another piece, so each piece has it's own arc to it.

Glad you guys like it. If anyone has any more questions feel free to ask.

Here's a couple more photos of the Titanium exhaust

Nice weight saving, but i can't see spending 6K just for a catback exhuast. That's 75% of what you would need for a SC kit. JMO

Different people like different things. To some people it's worth it.

I couldn't name one that would rather have a catback instead of SC kit. Could you??
