wow.... really nice. Amuse is very high quality. I used to have the Amuse Ti exhaust and that was super light. These Y pipe would have gone well with the Amuse Ti exhaust! The exhaust sounded so sweet. I wonder how the whole Amuse Ti set up will sound like.

I'd like to trade with you for my complete exhaust if you're interested... I'm running Helix test pipes with the 5Zigen Pro Racer S-spec (very rare) full exhaust. It's a little too quiet for my taste, I got it like new from Tony at Performance and since I barely drive my car on the street I wouldn't mind going with something with a little more bite

The exhaust is a true dual up to the rear cannister and then exits with a single tip on the passenger side (like the Top Secret ones)... it's full stainless 1.2mm wall thickness with Iconel tip (titanium look). Makes great sound (very exotic sounding) your welcome to listen to it before we swap... it works great with the Helix test pipes and is just the right volume for a street car in my oppinion... let me know!

here's a link to the exhaust: http://www.5zigenusa.com/exh_s-spec.html

I'm sure you know what the test pipes look like

still calling bs on the 18whp and weight savings.
You need to get your facts before you start calling "BS". First off, its titanium, the weight savings should be even better then what he posted. Also 18whp is believeable. Your removing the cats, that alone is over 10whp, this isn't a "cat-back system".

Awesome price for an amazing exhaust. I'm surprised it hasn't sold.

Question Amuse pipe

Not familiar with the whole test pipe thing.What about the O2 sensors, do they still go on this pipe and does it affect the computer? Will I have the check engine light on all the time?

same with testpipe, just use a cheap $15 solution to avoid check engine light.
look at the picture, it has 02 bung for 02 sensor.

under 3k? sounds like any other car with exhaust.

Just this piece will save 37lbs off the car New goes for $1300 and 5 months waiting time. So here's your chance for probably the only R1000 in the states.

Based on dyno results, this will gain additional 15-18whp when replacing a setup with aftermarket ypipe with testpipe. Since the ypipe is one piece that goes all the way to the header directly.

Asking $825.

Again with this your getting the following benefits:
-Lightest weight y-pipe there is
-Best free flowing y-pipe there is
-Most power y-pipe there is
-Exclusive. Only one in US (as far as i know).
Does it mean that y-pipe also delete the cat back?
