Am I the only one bothered by the L shape it makes into the muffler? This design seems almost as restrictive to airflow as the stock(obviously wider pipes but design wise).

The cost of titanium exhausts will be coming down in price (hopefully) in a few years.
good article

Did not know that Ti is an abundant resource

You are not the only one, I dislike it as well.

Way too much for an exhaust that sounds like crap with rice flying around the inside and I'm already thin to begin with so I lost the $3000 in weight already. Not to mention the flow looks restrictive as well. Could get headers, and a full headerback system with intake for less than this.

I dont see whats so special about this exhaust. Sure it looks good... but it has more rasp than my $600 Takeda. Whats the point in looking good if it doesnt sound good.

Glad someone else agrees this sounds like total crap. Nameless/Perrin/FT-86 Speedfactory's exhaust wipe the floor with this one. I probably left off a ton others too.
