You know, a mass produced titanium exhaust would be a huge improvement over the heavy RB system that's currently slung under my FB. Seems like something you could probably fab up. Wink wink, nudge nudge. Project is looking awesome, keep up the good work.

Well, considering that he has a 20B even if he did make it, it wouldn't work with any other engine. Unless you have a 20B as well.

Like every one has said tht is an amazing build. If you do decide to market Carbon fiber parts the stock fenders and that rear bumper (stock width) would be awsome.
I like the way the rear bumper stays close in insead of jutting out.

Cant wait for more vids of your car.
