It's a shame no one ever dynoed the megan drift spec exhaust because when I put it on, I definately felt a large gain. That one is 2.5" all the way.

From the other thread https://www.scionlife.com/forums/vie...306&highlight=
Well, is it 2.25 or is it 2.5? Not that I care or anything because I passed picking an exhaust out some time ago, but it would for sure benefit those who are seeking an exhaust to clarify what size piping it runs. As wether or not you are going F/I or staying N/A matters a great deal on pipe diameter.

The Ti can is surprisingly light too! I will have additional information tomorrow.
***I will tell you now that it sounds nasty!***
***It does sit at a slight angle upon exit***
***2.5 inch tubing makes for good power and no rasp***
***Price is TBD***

Thanks for your criticism.
Agency-Power and Vivid Racing are two different companies. We are both in the same building and collaborate with each other for warehouse space, dyno testing, and product development. There are also three other tenants who share this building. Since I work at AP any problems are handled by me! I am on AIM under “APGeoff” for at least 10 hours a day. I will always be here for customer service related issues.
I see that you are from Colorado. Where do you get your car worked on? I have a strong network of dealers in that state who will attest that our products are quality and customer service is top notch. Just ask Chris at RX Motorsports, Tommy at Street Concepts, Lucas at Carz Custom, Tai at Cor Sport, and Bill at MAC auto. These are all my satisfied dealers in the state of CO alone.
If you have every had a bad experience with me or the Agency-Power products I can understand, but since you both dont even own our products your posts are inconclusive.

Can you clarify the 2.25/2.5 and the stainless steel (burnt)/titanium questions?

The exhaust tubing for the tC exhaust is 2.25in. The piping is 321 stainless steel. We chose to make our system from 321 because 321 is stabilized by Titanium (321) and/or Niobium (347). These grades are used because they are not sensitive to intergranular corrosion after heating. Grade 321 is the grade of choice for applications in high temperature ranges. Combining high strength, resistance to scaling and phase stability with resistance to subsequent aqueous corrosion, make this the perfect choice.
The muffler and tip are completely Ti. We agreed upon titanium because of its weight and strength characteristics. The finish is burnt for aesthetic value. (Also to let everyone know that you have a Ti exhaust)

Besides all true vendors with a truely great product can overcome the negatives and turn them into possitives. Again AP hasnt done that for me or some of the select buyers in other markets. SO untill then my views stand.

I don’t recall your order. Was there something that I didn’t do to upset you?

AP has refused to become a site sponsor. This should be locked! Also it wont mean anything if you offer to replace my rad hoses now. Where were you when I first asked for help? Or did i need to come bash you first before I would get a response?
