does anyone know any muffler shops that use titanium pipes in the bay area? also while im at it its hard to find a real titanium muffler and its pissing me off. like all of them are like titanium tips... all info will be helpful.

looking for a 3" inlet wid like a 4" tip or 4.5" something like a 6" canister or larger

 

I have never heard of a shop that actually does this. I think you are better off getting one made for the car.

 

What do you mean by REAL Titanium muffler??

 

i think he wants full titanium pipping. and a titanium canister and tip

not really sure about getting full titanium piping. but the only companies that makes a full titanium is amuse, top secret, and JIC

 

i think of the three, amuse and jic are the easiest to acquire. everything top secret is "top secret." you hear about the products....yet you have to jump through hoops for a decent lead time

Kit (top secret *****)

 

Well my Apex'i single Ti exhaust has a REAL titanium muffler.

 

top secret....mmmmmm....

 

thanx for the info guys

so dissapointing there isnt any titanium piping shop. and yes i was asking about a titanium cannister

hey chineseguy how do you like your apexi? did you by chance dyno before and after? recommend it?

im thinking of 3 exhausts.. apexi ti, greddy ti and agency power ti
can anyone gimme suggestions on loudness and power of the three?

 

outa your 3 choices i would take the Apex'i. i love jons Apex'i exhaust and the sound is sweet. if your lookin for Ti exhaust either go Apex'i or JIC.

 

Ive seen the JIC and people love them, havent heard them in person. Reading about them i hear nothing but its just too loud, whatever that means. I wish i can just meet some guys with these exhausts and make my own judgements.

ive had apexi stuff on my 240 and i like it but i dont know. maybe we can meet one day chineseguy?

anyone have agency power? is that just not a good way to go?

 

the thing that you need to consider is single or dual. personally if i had an N/A car i would have gotten a Greddy TiC. but i have twin turbo so i have AAM dual Ti. it all depends on your setup. power wise it all depends on the piping size. smaller piping youll get more torque. larger piping you will yeild more top end. but if your comparing power of titanium v stainless steel, there isnt really much of a difference. the point of a titanium exhaust is for weight savings. so theres a lot of things you need to consider when purchasing an exhaust. heres a pic of my AAM still in box..



cant wait to get my z out here. and meet some of you all soon ;-)

 

i dont believe the muffler on the Greddy is Ti. only the tip

 

no the greddy is stainless steel canister.

but lookie what i found... look familiar?

If you want a ti muffler get the JIC ST. The exhaust sounds great but it is loud, and by loud i mean i drones, and i think thats what everyone else is talking about, because the exhaust drones like crazy when accelerating. I can't say the same for the Apex'i because i have yet to hear that one in person.

 

I have the JIC ST and it drones like crazy but so will any other Ti exhaust without a decent resonator/muffler. The silencer helps ALOT and makes inc abin noise much more tolerable.

 

when choosing an exhaust theres really alot to consider so just remmeber that. you dont wanna go wasting a bunch of money on an exhaust that your gonna have to get rid of later if you plan on going f/i..

 

thanx for the info on the jic.

im planning on stayin na im liking the apexi more and more

i was browsing arc site and came across this..

its there super titan silencer for the hr. i kno i kno arc is super expensive not to mention shipping costs and shipping time. but i just thought it was an interesting exhaust design. thought i share

 

Agency Power is a nice exhaust.

 

Try to contact turbohoses, they might do it. If money is not a problem for you.

 

WHOA! i cant believe someone actually found that. i forgot all about it
