How much does this weight? Stock cat-back weight? Weight save, how much? Nice!

Sounds like a VW bug with a stinger megaphone pipe on it. Bleh.

u really think theres a difference? the difference i see is the "silencer" on the muffler tip that can be removed... and the tsudo seems to have a bigger tip diameter





ohh i think u might mean the rainbow on the muffler, well then i guess there u win, but otherwise not...

about the gains... there are not impresive... to be a full catback should be better gains... the GReddy's exhausts are getting 6hp and they are axlebacks...

I wouldn't call Tsudo as ebay quality, but yhea both are in different categories. Ti is like the holy grail of racing materials; because of it's weight and maybe thermal capacity. Does anyone know if this material helps in keeping heat in the exhaust's path? 2.25 is good for more low end torque, because of exhaust velocity. 2.5" is good after 2,700-3,000 RPMs. loosing torque below that.

I'm pretty sure you will not get 12-16 whp under the same conditions.

On a stock auto tc with no other mods...

I think 6-7 horses is more believable.

I could be wrong though. Just my thought.

Bump for a great exhaust!!!

2.25 piping? I can't believe it actually made more power.
