I agree, but, $900 for 5 feet of pipe with a couple resonators, a couple bends and a tip is a bit steep.

With that said, I paid well under 900 CAD for my Kakimoto GT1.0Z single exit. It's my new golden standard for quality and pricing. So far, nothing is coming close to it.

That system is WAY on my radar. I have seen/heard nothing but good things. Vendor support is kinda lacking. Where did you by yours?

Do you have a build thread? Interested in wheel specs, and tire specs, and suspension specs and all the specs

It's bassy as fuck and your ears WILL bleed if you have a catless header and don't have the silencer in. Japanparts.com is where I picked mine up. Yen was a bit down and the CAD was up at the time, so it came to around 740ish CAD with shipping for me. The worst part about trying to buy one is the wait time for them to come in stock.

Lol a bit defensive there. As another poster said you aren't getting much for 900 and I'm sure the gains on that thing are also minimal. Looks sick for sure though.

Nah, I really couldn't care less. I usually don't even make comments regarding what things are priced at. Been in this too long, and know both sides of it. Oh wells

Yup might have to just order one, worst case scenario i'd rather just swap mufflers instead of having to drop the mid pipe as well every time I change my mind. Nice setup!

Yeah, and it's not like there's a similar, cheaper option.

I'm full catless with ace 421 header. Had to weld in a much larger resonator(it's actually a 4x9x17 magnaflow muffler) in the mid pipe and running a Greddy sp elite. I don't see how any of the single exits are going to muffle enough of the sound as they are all straight through style cans.

If you really need the single exit look you can use the q300 or sp elite and chop off and block one exit pipe.

I'm actually not 100% because everything about this muffler is in Japanese, but I'm pretty sure its just steel.

Build quality is top notch, the sound is the best IMO, and I have ZERO drone despite having a resonator-less Nameless midpipe and catless headers, completely due to the unique design of the Legsport.

(I had a TRD catback prior to this setup and with the header/cat section it was extremely drone-y, too much for a daily driver, but this setup is perfect)

So you are saying ZERO drone. Is that zero drone at highway speeds? Say 70ish mph? That's what gets me with aftermarket catbacks with a catless header and frontpipe.

Zero drone as in any time I'm not accelerating there is no noise.
