I hope it's not going to be a single outlet...that'll look retarded...until a genious incorporates it into the rear rotary symbol...

mikeb · 02-05-2004, 01:04 PM

what magazine did that come from

darkducati · 02-05-2004, 01:42 PM

It came from their website.

Velocity-8 · 02-05-2004, 04:23 PM

I love the high quality tip! LOL!!

takahashi · 02-05-2004, 04:28 PM

not bad but double outlet look heaps better.

david borla · 02-05-2004, 05:22 PM

Looks nice. How much do they cost? Where are they built?

Dookie_Rx-8 · 02-05-2004, 06:44 PM

no sound clip,,hmmmmmm i cant wait that long im getting borlas

310Guy · 02-05-2004, 07:21 PM

Titanium? It's going to be expensive...

AlexCisneros · 02-05-2004, 07:42 PM

I hope it will be a single tip. The weight savings will be great and flow will probably be better.

murix · 02-05-2004, 07:46 PM

Looks real nice. There are going to definitely be some weight savings.

that would be interesting

Jeff_pap31s · 02-05-2004, 10:51 PM

That will look so gay on an 8. I hope no one is really considering buying this junk

XDEEDUBBX · 02-05-2004, 10:57 PM

is there really room for that straight through design exhaust can on the back of the 8?

Huh? Gay how? If it's a single exhaust?

I don't understand...

It would appears to be a generic picture for their Ti exhaust line if you look at their application for other cars.

darkducati · 02-06-2004, 09:02 AM

I beleive DYT is correct. I was hoping there would be a picture of the actual exhaust floating around on the net somewhere.

Blue’d tip look — Using a blue tip is customary in titanium exhaust construction. Provides that “hand built and custom engineered” look.

I'm no expert by any stretch when it comes to exhaust systems, but that "Blue'd tip look" customary construction is for the birds. [insert finger in throat] :o

Some other "features" sound like they're taking some major cost-cutter features and giving good excuses as to why you actually want them. Like I said, I'm no expert in this stuff, but...

With a single, straight through muffler like the one that is pictured, it'd apt to be LOUD, and "fart-can" ricey sounding. Have to see the final product and hear a sound clip to form a real opinion though.

djmano · 02-11-2004, 10:03 PM

if it were dual outlet with titanium scortched tips id really want it. just like the JIC.

zoom44 · 02-11-2004, 10:14 PM

you'd never see the blue'd part anyway. it would be covered by thick black soot.

Hmmmm .. . . maybe with a nice big chromed rotary shaped single tip where the rear rotary symbol is now. It would have to be about twice the size the symbol is now. I could see it working, but it would have to be damn nice to beat the look of dual exhaust!

Same "generic" photo on the RX-7 model so I am sure it's not an actual photo. The blue scorched tips are MagnaFlo's trademark. I noticed they also have other style tips you could use, there are a number of models of tips.

SIN (Forum member) is selling a MagnaFlo SS catback system. Has anyone heard of this system? Their website doesn't have anything listed for the 8 except the TI listed, and that is coming soon.

darkducati · 02-12-2004, 09:00 AM

The blued tips are used by a ton of companies, including JIC. They are not anyones trademark, but simply the process of heating titanium with a flame. Some people think it looks cool, others don't. I really don't care either way, as long as it's functional and makes as much power as possible.

I think this is something he had custom made using Magnaflow mufflers...
