I see this listed on RX7store for a very nice price, but it doesn't seem that anyone has it.

Is it not out yet?

 

Yeah I belive it's not out yet or just came out. I saw it on greddys web site. I must say it looks like a very nice exhuast system.

 

It looks really nice. I think it would "ring" a bit (titanium is expensive so would be thin and is sort of like aluminum - only much stronger). It's very expensive. Advantage is you would loose 20-30 lbs. AFAIK that is the only advantage, other than the "cool factor".

 

That price is crazy. $700 for a catback? You would have to be an all-out racer to need the weight savings because 20 pounds won't do anything. I thought I was high on crack when I bought my HKS Hiper for $500. It just seems like when are these rising prices gonna end? The reason they can charge so much is that people feel they NEED to buy this stuff to make their car so much faster.
The exhaust is not gonna take 1/10 off your quarter mile times or a second off of your lap times. The extra 20 pounds won't do anything, but if you think the exhaust looks cool and is worth the $700 price tag, go for it. For around that price you could buy a good set of tires or suspension components(trailing arms, toe links, Kazz diff) that would really make a difference in your car.

 

that's actually cheap compared to the other titanium exhaust systems out.

 

why dont you look at the cat back exhaust systems for other cars like the 350z. 1600 dollars for the stillen exhaust and it only ads 12 horse power and saves like 10 pounds.

 

Jason?

 

i think that greddy exhaust is overrated in my opinion,there are many better exhausts for sale at cheaper prices. The weight factor of titanium is not worth the money unless you are trying to make a full blown track car.

 

I'm picky about weight.

 

Think about this.
Its JDM TRUST Race Full Exhaust. Its better than the Ti. Price almost the same but its a straight pipping design from MP to End.

I've debated weight options on my car since I'm to the point that HP isn't going to be added cheaply. The PFS exhaust I've had on the car for 8 years weighs roughly 19 lbs. The Rotary Extreme Ti weighs in at 8. Is it worth it to save 11 pound to spend another 900 and maybe get 250 for mine? If I was stock and buying and exhaust for the first time, then I'd go with a Ti exhaust.

you could also consider a blitz nurspec. very good exhaust and they retail for about 350.00.

 

Pretty sure it's not 8lbs for that cheap price..

 

It may not be 8 lbs but who cares.Its stainless steel all around and its 350.All the other all stainless stell exhausts sell for at least a hundred more.I just ordered one.Hehe.Horah for more torque and hp.

 

You may not care about the difference in weight, but there are people on this board who do. Don't be ignorant just because it's not important to you. As always, you get what you pay for.. buy cheap stuff expect cheap stuff.

 

how about the sound, does a titanium exhaust sound similar to aluminum exhaust?

 

the blitz exhaust may have a cheap price but is not built cheap by any means and the weight thing you are so concerned about do you really think saving 10 to 15 lbs. is going to make that big diffrence in the performance of your fd most likley not.

 

anymore opinions on this exhaust? pics or sound clips?

 

I just put one on my car. Sound is similar to the Apex GT spec, maybe a little deeper tone. Weights only 8 lbs. Very nice exhaust for the money.

Jason i havent heard the Apexi Gt iv got the greddy pe 2 how dose it compeer with that.

 

but its alot quiter than the apexi gtspec.... it sounds really nice.... looks cool too

 

ive got the greddy power extreme 2 and it screems like a ***** cat beeing booted from behind, its loader than the apexi N1. if i was you i'd go for where my heart tells me, so i wont be disapointed after.

 

i saw the guys at gotham put it on a car havent heard it yet but I have never seen a prettier exhuast for an fd. Its absolutely beautiful. Im thinking of getting one they are selling it for 600 so I think that its a steal.

 

Jason, i meant to pm you for pics do you have any?

 

I think I have some pics somewhere. I will find them and post them.
