Anyone running a Kakimoto Exhaust?
I heard Kakimoto makes some really nice exhausts. My friend has the GT1.0z full titanium on his WRX, and I was wondering if anyone here has a Kakimoto on their FD. If so, how do you like it? I need a new exhaust since my old one got damaged while driving up a steep driveway.

The whole exhaust is Titanium. The piping and muffler are all Titanium, so the system weight about 9lbs total. It's pretty expensive for just a catback though, about $1100. There's a stainless version for $650.

i thought that JIC was the only exhaust that was full titanium...anyways, I heard that the kakimoto exhaust is very nice but loud as a mother...I heard it sounds really really mean though

Yeah the Kakimoto sounds f*ckin sick! My friend's WRX sounds like a mix between a WRC car/Harley Davidson/Ported Rotary. It's super loud, you can hear him coming from over a mile away, but the sound is unmatched by any other exhaust. I think I'm going to get one for my FD now.
