^ Welcome Home! Your setup is looking good!

 

Anyone in Sacramento has Amuse exhaust on their Z? Please PM me! I would like to hear this piece of art.

 

Some of the better amuse clips I have heard (bad weather still here, so I can't get a sound clip of my setup yet):

My Amuse is on the Z now but it's kissing a tiny corner tip of my Evap Canister... again...

I'm going to try and do some more adjustment tomorrow. I'll post up some pics asap.

 

what y-pipes do u guys recommend for amuse setup ? or what is most commonly used

 

Sick Z

 

For the b-tail pipes, what color would they turn over time?

 

I can only image what "etc..." is?!?!?!? Aren't "clean[ing]..., polish[ing]..., wax[ing]..., keep[ing] it shiny..." all the same thing?

And btw, I know that this has a name behind it, but isn't it odd that you don't even get a true dual for $2,200+? HKS FTW, although I do love the way this looks.

 

Material and build quality

 

A true dual full titanium exhaust will cost on upwards of $6k (ARC). The HKS is SS with titan tips. The Amuse is full titanium. The cost of titanium has skyrocketed in Japan over the past years.

The Amuse is a single path exhaust, the HKS a true dual (but with smaller diameter piping). They are 2 completely different exhausts with entirely different designs, materials, cost, rarity, etc. They really should not be compared to each other.

Compare an Amuse exhaust to a Mines, ARC, Fuji ti, Top Secret exhausts. These are all titanium single path exhausts, with similar price points and weight savings.

 

Good for you!

Anyways, here's a couple of pics of my Amuse installed. Enjoy!

 

looks gr8! I'm jealous of your B tips!

 

amazing

 

Amuse here as well, but don't have any great pics of it installed. I actually bought Rickdogg's off him a few months back. It's nice!

I'm running a Tanabe y-pipe and it sounds sechs whereas Rick was running JIC I believe. Anywho... people's jaws drop when they here it under load. It's mean.

My CEL came on tonight after running the amuse for about 500 miles. I'll take it to Autozone tomorrow and see what's up. Could be EVAP or maybe oil. We'll see!

Thanks for starting this thread and hopefully I'll get time to post pics

 

how is the performance gains on this exhaust?

 

Probably about 6-8whp. People don't buy the Amuse for power, but for that amazing sound.

 

So does anyone make a true dual titanium exhaust?

 

i might be joining the club hopefully soon.

if anyone is interested.. i have a groupbuy set up already.. many g35 drivers have ordered

 

plus it weighs next to nothing.
