correct.

I guess it wont be any lighter than any of the other duals out there now, will it? If only the tips are titanuium.

We didnt physically weigh both systems, but based on lifting them both, I would doubt there is any weight savings. The two mufflers put together probably weigh a tad less than the stock one, but the other pipes probably weigh a little bit more.

why is this thread titled Ti exhaust? I guess I just think it to be a bit misleading.

HKS calls it the HP-Ti exhaust...I cant imagine how much this thing would cost if it was all titanium

btw - did you do a before dyno? and going to do an after?

Sorry, no before dyno. I will be dynoing the car in a few weeks, but it probably wont do much good to anyone but me considering the other mods I have on my car.

Do you think you could run test pipes with this exhaust and not have the raspy sound you get from most exhausts?
Thanks

Fo Sho!!! I think this HKS exhaust is by far the nicest one available for the Z. I've seen, heard, and touched all of them, and nothing outshines HKS... This is one bad *** peice! Thanks for the extra pics DJK! Looks crazy!

I think??? Injen and RSR are made by the same mutually outsourced manufacturing facility in Japan.

Are you telling me you don't wholesale to any resellers? Those vendors' HKS products are also covered. Still confused?

This exhaust fits perfectly. Here's a picture before the tips are installed.

by far one of the best looking systems i've seen, and i bet it sounds just as good as it looks. did you guys have ANY problems with the install? any fallbacks what-so-ever on it? sure looks to me that this is one of the best exhaust systems i've seen for the Z so far. thanks for the pics, hope to hear some sound clips and maybe a vid. soon!!!

60mm for the piping, 120mm for the tips. 120mm = ~4.72 inches, 60mm = ~2.36 inches.

Thanks for the clips..

How are the titanuim tips secured onto the exhaust? If it's just screws I have a feeling they will get stolen fast

HK$ gives you some allen head bolts and nuts, but i'm sure I can find something safer to use from ARP.

That exhaust is pretty loud, and sounds awesome too! Thanks for the clips. Excellent choice on the exhaust, it looks and sounds like it was well worth the wait. Have fun with it.
