you should check and make sure that exhaust is even made. There are 2versions that are normally produced - one that uses the stock Y pipe and one that has a ti y pipe. Neither is a true dual. The dual one is a build to order thing in Japan, and right now ARC has one that they produced and is being offered for sale. It is, for now, a one off (they have one for the NSX too). I have pics of it someplace, as it was made awhile ago.

the one posted on chris's car (on tech) came from us..sweet exhaust.

I've got confirmation that they offer a true dual exhaust to the public. Of course it's made to order though.

Actually, the retail on this true dual exhaust is $7,490. So with that train of thought, I'll be losing money on this too. Guess I never learn.

Wait, I found another $8k exhaust, only this one has crystal and onyx and made by our friends at Veilside. I guess they weren't looking for weight savings!

ARC stuff is pretty nice, but not worth that much for an exhaust PERIOD.
ARC makes parts for OEMs like Nissan, as seen on the latest 350Z RS. almost everything on that car is made by ARC. BUT i do have to admit, that there are a lot of instances out there where i've seen ARC parts, and taiwanese copies, and they end up being nearly the same. I'm not knocking ARC stuff, i like it, but there has to be a marketing reason why these things are so damn expensive. It's not a super exhaust or anything, and won't net you more HP than others out there. I'd say go amuse, save the money, still be baller, and have left over cash!
ARC must have some strange marketing agreements, to have to sell their stuff that high. No company would sell something for that much unless they HAD to, and there's no way that the materials cost even 1/4th of that price.....
