Just kidding guys. The exhaust isn't really custom made. It's the new GReddy Ti-C Exhaust System! I prototyped for GReddy a while back and they finally contacted me to come in and install the very first production model in the world yesterday evening. Take a look at these pictures!











P.S. Inside scoop: I looked at the boxes outside the warehouse, and they only have 13 others in stock at the moment. Buy yours quick.

First Impression: I had the exhaust installed yesterday evening and drove home with the silencer on in traffic. With the silencer, the exhaust is dead quiet. I couldn't hear anything out of the norm (except for my CAI, of course) when driving. As soon as I got home, I took the silencer off because I'm a ricer, and boy, is the sound TOTALLY different. It is awesomely loud. It reminded me alot of my friends Invidia Exhaust for his S2000. The sound is extremely crisp and deep. I was thoroughly impressed. As far as gains are concerned, from going back and forward between aftermarket and stock exhaust so many times now, I would definitely have to say I felt something of a difference. As to what kind of difference, I'm unsure. My only gripe about the exhaust is the fact that only the tip was titanium. Other than that, the welds on the exhaust are excellent and the finish is amazing.

Definitely recommended if you can afford it, otherwise just go with the Megan Racing Exhaust when it is finally released. I honestly prefer it over this exhaust, just because it's alot more street legal looking and sounding than this one.

Just got word that I will be testing Power Enterprises' Camcon i-Vtec & Air/Fuel Controller. I'll be sure to keep everyone updated on how that goes.

looks like it sticks too far out of the bumper. i like the evo2 in that it's flush.

do you think you could shoot some pics from the side?

nope, but it's pretty loud inside. :[ doesn't sound bad or anything, but you know it's there. pretty sure it sounds similar to any other car with a loud exhaust system.
