Not exactly the stats most people here are looking for... all exhausts tend to come with that stuff (resonator, o2 sensor)... weight reduction is an important factor, maybe list who makes this particular exhaust.

Here is an example of what you can include: (this is for a GReddy exhaust sold at PTPMotorsports)

FULL TITANIUM RACING CAT-BACK EXHAUST. Although GReddy is known for our famous cat-back street exhaust, GReddy got its start in racing exhausts. After numerous customer requests, we have decided to release a line of race inspired exhaust systems. Not satisfied with just offering another free-flowing, large diameter piping with minimal bends, GReddy has decided to offer the GReddy Racing Exhaust in full Titanium; that’s an 80mm cat-back system that weighs as little as 10 lbs. FULL RACE (MAY NOT BE STREET LEGAL)

Regular price: $1,050.00 SALE PRICE! : $825.00

That's not quite true. Most outfits offer the cat back portion only. Really only 2 outfits out there offer the hi-flow cat & resonator portion of the "full" exhausts, SR Motorsports & Can Zoomer (Random Tech. Cat. unit). For the RX8 that is. If they could make the cat/resonator & cat back area titanium you are looking at an easy 30-35 lbs. of weight removed from the car. The stock cat & resonator is a beast. The SR Motorsports unit claims to reduce the weight 12 lbs., and from lugging the 2 units around I believe it.

The RX8 does have a dual pipe/large muffler so that description ($825) is probably :

1) Off another car that only has a single exhaust.

2) Is only a single side/single exhaust.

The JIC full titanium cat back unit is around $1250-$1400, so a unit that replaces the resonator & cat (if it is titanium as well) will be big $$$.

Not true... B&B, EP, and RP all sell resonator portions as well. The description I gave was mearly an "example" for him to use as the information people would be looking for. All he did was show a picture and then in his second post simply named the parts in the picture as opposed to stating any actual information.

Sorry, we might be saying different things. They offer midpipe options (either straight metal pipe that replaces the cat & resonator) or just the resonator itself, but these companies do not offer hi-flow cat units (hi flow catalytics followed by resonator or without the resonator. In essence those companies do the exact opposite of the Can Zoomer/Random Tech & SR Motorsports units. There are many more outfits (Borla, Greddy, RB, JIC, Espelir, Mazda Speed, HKS, Tanabe, etc.) that just offer the exhuast portion. There are far fewer choices if you want a hi-flow cat unit (SR Motorsports or Can Zoomer) or a simple midpipe option (resonator, no cat) in B&B, RP, etc.

I see what you are saying. Unfortunately, the original poster still isnt giving us any other info on this particular setup.

Looks like the JIC with titanium tips maybe? It appears to have no cat, just a resonator.
