If you just put any pipe through, it'd be a guess as to whether or not you'll even benefit from it.

True, but the question was if it would affect smog, which it shouldn't. Now if your talking performance gains; then pipe diameter, bends, baffling will all affect performance.

Won't affect the the smog at all. At least, the sniffer won't see a difference.

I will lurk the Mine's website and report back. I have always been a big fan of Mine's when it comes to their Nissan products.
Report: MSRP on Mine's website is 294,000Y which equates to $3,214.58 USD as at Feb 9, 2009. Pics: Last edited by 245ONQEW; 02-09-2009 at 03:36 PM. |

I like this exhaust. The welds, bends, and tips are all perfect. The fact that it is Ti is just gravy. I've recently become a fan of Mine's there design philosophy mirrors mine exactly. Make it subtle, make it functional, and make it right.
I would be curious to see exactly how much of a price difference making the Stillen piece out of Ti would cause.

I'm sure they will shed some weight, theres a lot of extra metal in the stock setup.. I like this design, but even with the Yen tanking, it still is super expensive... |

very nice looking exhaust. I agree with everyone on the price, but then again, Thats actually typical for any TI exhaust. Aside from asthetics, i gurantee that the weight savings on a typical TI exhaust system is around 60 to 70 percent lighter. Price aside, i love the titanium exhaust sound. Very exotic
