the ap you have is stainless steel w/ ti tips. Not full titanium.


Honestly my favorite setup is a racing beat dual res mid pipe paired with a JIC full titanium catback. I have herd a lot of different exhaust. My 2nd fav is full racing beat setup from headers back, 3rd would probably be the ap exhaust just its a bit loud.

maybe because of a midpipe?

and the exhaust i have isn't just ti tips. the guy before me bought it and i know titanium. i know the difference in metals and the difference between 6160 and 7005 aluminum. he might just have put the AP ti tips but the rest of it is ti too, i got under it and looked which was hard as hell seeming how low they are to the ground. also it doesn't bother me but i could do without the smell in the cabin sometimes from it.

exhaust is one of those things that you really can't ask people for help with, unless you're asking about gains or quality. As far as SOUND, that is purely subjective to who's listening to it.

It's like asking, what bodykit should I put on my car?

That's why you're getting a lot of spam posts in this thread.

Why would you want to do that? It improves air flow, and air flow= hp.

AP doesnt make a full TI catback, how much would you say that weighs? Around 30+ pounds?
