Cool JIC Titanium Catback

http://picasaweb.google.com/SleepeR1st/Exhaust#

A couple snaps. Tomorrow i'm going to attempt to polish up the tips real nice, we'll see how well titanium polishes with stainless steel polish -_-

I'll snap pics of said results.

Here ya go! Polishing it was futile, it is already very clean and i could not make it look much better.

The exhaust sound phenomenal, i would not change a thing. It is quiet when cruising, and screams like a banshee when i need her to.
I paid 350$ shipped for it used. Needed to have the titanium re-welded, that cost me another $400, plus he had to fit it up and install, that was included in the price.

So $750 total, retail is around 1200-1300, something insane. Oh ya, the whole thing together weighs like 16-17 lbs, it feels like you are holding a plastic wiffle bat, very cool.

You mean the blue? Or the bronzish hue the camera gives the exhaust? I'm sure if i went all out with a buffer i could make the exhaust shine like chrome, titanium is one of the most, if not the most lustrous metals out there...

Damn! That's one heavy whiffle bat.

Hope you make it to the Cape Cod Run so I can hear it.
