Looks nice. I can't see what it can do that the other strut bars can't do from a performance standpoint. If you want bling maybe this is it but 5 bills???

Haha, we do!

We have ARC ti strut bars on both our shop Evolution 8's.

Our RX8 would've got it, but we ended up just using the titan radiator shroud only

Here's one of our Evos:



That Evo has ARC radiator, ARC ti strut bar, ARC front mount intercooler, ARC spark plug cover, ARC oil catch can, ARC radiator cap, the list goes on....bit obsessed much?

As for titanium, there is the titanium A-Spec upper intercooler pipe and titanium A-Spec turbo manifold

very strong very light, my understanding though is that if you don't have the corect thickness it can be very fragile, but that's just what I've heard etc.. so it may or may not be true

we just feel that stainless is completely explored, so we gotta take it to the next level

we R&D all our own titanium products before releasing onto the market so we don't run into quality control issues.

oh and i forgot to mention our titanium shift ***** (which are for sale right now btw in our section)
