Yeah, but actual price and MSRP differ by a lot on some products. I wouldn't be surprised if you could pick up the Magnaflow for 1/2 of it's $2300 price tag. I'd like a sound clip, and some specs too... weight? dia tubing? etc. The prices on these full ti exhausts is just insane. I know manufacturing processes are difficult on titanium, but geebus!

Between the Amuse and the Magna Flow I like the Amuse a lot better. The finish is a lot nicer. I have to admit though even the Magnaflow guy the MSRP is totally overrated because Magnaflow are not known to be relatively expensive.

The Amuse tip is definitely more polished, but that's nothing you couldn't do yourself in a couple hours by hand. Price, weight, and (lack of) sound and my items of importance in that order. Bling and brand cache are not factors for me.

Please let us know when you find a Magnaflow imported exhaust at 1/2 retail. I have a full Maggie x-pipe and catback on my Cobra, and while it was discounted, it was nowhere near 1/2 price, and that was fabricated domestically. The overhead and import costs on a Ti exhaust will add to its cost. But please do post when you find it...

I am with you on the weight and sound thing - they are the only real benefits of these exhaust when all is said and done.

Road Rage: I talked to a Magnaflow salesman in California today. He told me the exhaust would be about $1200 shipped to Virginia. He didn't have the final price sheet because the Ti exhausts were actually released for initial sale today! He said to call him tomorrow, and he would give me the exact price. I will post my results.

Wow...1200 bucks shipped, that sounds like a pretty sweet system if the quality is there.

I can't wait to hear more about this setup.

Great! But I really do not want a single - I like the dual look. Bummer.

That's a very competitive price for a full titanium exhaust. You won't find any cheaper. The Amuse and others are a hair under $2000.

The JIC/Topsecret/Veilside around the same price as the magnaflow if not cheaper plus its JDM compare any Ti system but JIC, and you will notice especially on AMUSE that all the welds are seamless a true sign of quality
