Quick question... i've seen this in a couple other Z's with this exhaust.. but did your rear-end lift up a bit after the install?
No, and I even removed the spare and jack, and I saw no difference at all. It still looks like the *** end is dragging.

It feels very lively, and I've seen claims of ~12hp just for the exhaust, and I did add that real nice JIC Y-pipe, but I really don't know. I did chirp third at > 60mph without even trying with this setup for the first time today, so I am very pleased with it.

Yes, the full amount was charged, but I understand 6 months is unusually long. I've heard 2-3 months is about right. I doubt Bulletproof will abscond with your measly 2 grand.

Sorry, haven't had time to record one, but there are plenty of clips of this setup floating around. It is absolutely silky smooth, no rasp, no pops or burps, it just builds as you step on the pedal, in both volume and pitch, to the redline, at which point it is considerably louder than stock, but nobody complained, not even the deputy i screamed by this morning.

As requested, 3 different angles. Working on a camera bracket and I'll take an in-car clip. Already got the drive-by.

I have the JIC Y-pipe. It is VERY nice, with a 3" outlet which meshes well with the Amuse.

I live next to a dairy farm and in the winter field mice visit my pantry sometimes. Apparently this one carried away more than he could eat, so he stashed them. It wasn't a very bad winter.

Is it just me, or do those exhaust tips seem to be sticking out a little far?

There is no adjustment for front-rear posititioning, and the sliding mounts on the rubber donuts are centered. These shots give a little different perspective.

Titanium rear pipe and twin cannisters weigh 19lbs total, JIC Y-pipe is SS and weighs 6 lbs. 25th Anniv. OEM Y-pipe is 13lbs, rear section is 10 lbs, and muffler is 32lbs. Total weight reduction is 30lbs. Amuse and JIC pipe diameter is 3" except where they split into 2 pipes, where the diameter is 2.5".

Looks good bro! Considering the same exhaust set-up (JIC Y-Pipe and Amuse R1) but I already have the APS cat-deletes. Where do you order it from and how much if you don't mind me asking. Thanks & congrats!

Got the Amuse from http://www.bulletproofautomotive.com/ for $2100. last August. Be prepared to wait, but not quite that long. I've heard it shouldn't take more than 2 months now, and the price may be higher. Check around this board, someone should chime in with another source. The JIC is available from several places, I think I paid $400. for it shipped.
