umm...wow......
The JIC sounds like it's going to rip you a new *******. My buddy has the same Single Ti but sounds not so aggressive, he doesn't have straight pipes or headers.
The amuse sounds really damn smooth...daamn. Nice videos!

My exhaust sounds almost like that amuse one, so i know it sounds good, but i cant imagine paying so much.. wtf am i talking about, iw ent thru 3 exhauasts! lol. Ill take a video of mine tomarrow. I want to compare! Btw, do u have pics of the Y pipe on the car? I want to see the merge point. Its not rasping, and i think cause the merge point may be farther back.

Keep in mind that typically stainless steel has a huge advantage as far as sound when compared to their titanium counterparts, but the Amuse executes it with the use of titanium, good looks, weight savings, quality metal (when compared to other Ti exhausts I have seen), and near flawless welds. It is like the perfect woman.
I might have a few pics, but I have to dig since I haven't had it lifted on a rack in a while since I have been doing more of my own work lately and only use regular jacks.

The video doesn't do it justice and it still sounds clean on video that was filmed with a digital camera. Plus I have not seen anything close to the quality (Not even a close 2nd!!!) of the welds and titanium on this thing besides my friend's NSX custom exhaust from Japan. I'd really like to see an ARC exhaust in person to compare as I am sure it is in the same realm as far as quality.

I changed it to a flowmaster muffler which is cheap as hell, but damn does it sound good.
Heres a quick link, and Ill make that video like I promised.

^ that sounds good but doesn't have that exotic tone the Amuse has. The amuse has this more hollow echo sound to it while your SVRT with new mufflers sounds deeper, far from the hollowness the Amuse gives.

I guess. I just said it sounds kinda like it . If i had both and had to pick one, i'd obviously pick the amuse one lol. I know my setup would make more poewr, but the amuse one weighs 50 lbs less and is a little bit quieter and looks much better and also retains stock aerodynamics.

None taken. I'd rather have amuse cuz I like the tips. I still like the sound of mine better, but I havnt heard amuse in person with straihgt pipes. Amuse w/ stock cats sounded boring.
