I would not recommend getting a Ti exhaust unless you are very rich and don't care how much money you spend, no matter how frivolous the item.

I had a Fujitsubo RM-01A (stainless steel), which weighed half (or less than half) the weight of the stock system.

One Ti that i know about is the Amuse. It is underaxle, and is basically a straight bpipe with no resonators, then the muffler. I'm sure they make a resonated one, but if you are worried about weight, there are better ways to reduce weight for much less money.

Cool. thanks for the info
I've heard the Fujitsubo RM-01A is nice for the all around performance and sound... You know who to go with for a reasonable price?
they run about 700-800 prob?

Chris, how'd you like your fujitsubo RM-01A? Also, what made you decide to get rid of it? Thanks

I LOVED my Fujitsubo RM-01A.

It sounds excellent, is very light compared to stock, and again, sounds awesome.

It goes for about $750 if i recall correctly.

I'm planning on buying one again next year for good.

If i could get another exhaust id definitely go with the Fujitsubo... although they may be hard to find and shipping can be a bastard. I tried to order one last may and was quoted 2-3 month waiting, plus 200 dollars ship fee.
