Not sure why it's private info, especially since everyone is asking how much for just the tips, but the price I was given was $1,900+ for just the tips.

I'm not sure why either.

To be fair to BPauto, $1900 is for the axle back including tips. I didn't get a quote for tips alone in my pm so I'm assuming they won't be selling it separately.

Axleback? Looking at the photos, this look like a cat back system to me, which eliminates secondary cats. I believe this system comes with a mid pipe right? I am still standing by for HP gains, weight and sound levels info.

you are correct rossi. I was just quoting the cheapest portion for someone who wanted the tips. The whole catback is $4500.

I am sorry for any confusion. Just to verify that price was for the whole axleback section which includes tips, canisters, and rear muffler piping (no connecting pipe included). I am awaiting a response from MCR to confirm what I believe to be the price for just the tips but until I hear back I cannot offer that price at risk of disappointing you so I only offered the prices I have confirmed.

I want to say the tips only cost just north or south of $1,000 but again, until I can verify I don't want to risk disrespecting or discouraging you.

Again, so sorry for the misunderstanding and I hope this clears things up.

Sorry to take this a little off topic, but if everyone likes that burn titanium look but don't want to shell out the $1k for just the tips, why not look into neo-chroming them? Just a suggestion/question to see if anyone has looked into it already.

No kidding.. If it's "just the tips" that are wanted, I think it would be cheaper to remove the OEMs & have them refinished.

Overall if everyone wants just the tips then I can figure out a way to get you all what you need. Originally I just made this post to share the titanium aspect because it is a full system that is offered and weighs less than half of what the OEM factory system is.

I figured those who want to better their 0-60 by changing their power-to-weight ratio would appreciate this exhaust as an original alternative to the Amuse in case you wanted to stray from mainstream Greddy and still acquire all the benefits.

Ah, ok. Thanks for clearing that up, and doing so very professionally! Let us know when you hear back from the company on tip pricing!

Truly, the pleasure is always all mine and I greatly appreciate your patience and understanding . I have some good news and not-so-great news...

MCR verified a couple of price discrepancies for me...

Not-so-great news... MCR tips, full inclusive cost to here in California is $1,275.
Good News... Before I was quoted catback system retails for about $4,555 but I can happily verify it is about $1,150 cheaper at $3,400 for full catback.

Well that's a bit more in a comparable ball park I suppose pending performance gains. But around the original price if you included the tips. Not bad if someone wants a near stock like system with some more noise. Might sound badass for all we know.
