Wow. That sounds incredible.

It may have been mentioned but how much weigh does the Ti save if any? As far as cost, how much more that a SS system? 2X?

I'd say Ti is about half the weight of SS and costwise, maybe 30% more.

I redid the tips, I didn't like how the blue stood out looking from behind the car.

Another short clip of how the exhaust sounds, this time from inside the car. My friend and I usually drive this road with a little more spirit but this turned out to be slow and lame due to being a holiday weekend.


BTW, I did not install the valves so this is how it sounds all the time

I'm sure they do! I'm not so sure I want to drive it to work anymore since I have to fire it up at 3am and it makes a loud popping noise at cold starts.

yeah, I love the sound of my exhaust on startup but, yes, have to be mindful of neighbors as much as I can

Looking good!

Question...

Did your titan exhaust come with titan nuts, bolts, and washers...or did you just reuse the factory bits?

thanks. I used the factory bolts. The only bolts/nuts that came with it are the stainless ones that attach the mufflers to the pipes.

Default a few questions
Hey JT2MA71!
Sick build brother! That exhaust makes the rcf sound like a BEAST!!!
Questions: do you have the PPE headers installed too? If you do, did you get the ECU reflashed from RR Racing? Also, when installing your exhaust in your garage, did you jack up the rear on the rear diff "pumpkin"?
Thanks for your time brother!

Thanks Kelvin!
No, still have the stock headers. I will get the tune once OBD tune is available.
Yes, raised the car by the diff and supported the two side lifting points with jack stands.
