well the whole exhaust is full stainless, tig welded with as you can see Vband

just the piping and exhaust work cost me $1060(this is with a discount)((4'' stainless is not cheap!)) just the mufflers alone were $114 each.
1300 for it all.

on the higher end but for the gain it was very well worth it!

some one asked my next upgrade?

this winter i will be doing a 1.5jz, GT35R, 550CC injectors, 4 Inch downpipe, better intercooler piping, custom manifold, R154 swap, cams and a better tune on the Fcon

ill probably add more but i will have to check it out. im still debating on what i want to do but for now ill settle with 480-550 ish. maby next year ill put a bigger turbo on for 650+ but this is my drift car so quick spooling is very important to me!

Yeah it's possible. If you have the money to purchase titanium piping. Not to mention someone that knows how to weld it properly.
