really? i would think they weight just as much as any other true dual exhaust. if youre thinking it's light because if the "ti" then youre outta luck. the tips are ti. the piping is stainless steel.

True but great performance and sound.

One of my friends in San Diego has just had this exhaust installed. On the G it looks great, just on the Z it has a different look. I'd recommend this exhaust if you looking to get rid of the Big Can that comes stock with the car, and has a very high internal restricted exhaust flow. The SFR exhaust has just slight curves and almost no resistance to the flow of exhaust gases. They are all hand made too. I visited my buddy several months back when he got the exhaust installed. I took some video of the car with the exhaust installed. Good luck shopping, and hope you find something that you like. Here is one of the pics I took.

Oh are just the tips titanium? I thought the whole thing was titanium, nvm then. I know this exhaust is going to weigh alot less than alot of exhaust just from the look of the carbon fiber mufflers. I bet this thing only weighs about 40 pounds....If it was titanium then it would prolly only be about 35 pounds.

God I wish I didn't just get the HKS high power one. I soooooo would have wanted this one!!!


wait a minute. Last I checked HKS doesn't make this exhaust for our car. This looks (the piping) like a custom exhaust with the HKS carbon TI mufflers welded on.

There were 2 different sets of the CF exhaust on here not too long ago. Despite the super high initial cost of $1500 listed on the site, the exhaust went for around $700 used as it was finally disclosed by the sellers that the piping is Speed Force and only the mufflers were HKS. The HKS true dual ti exhausts still sell for around $1K used.

That is NOT an HKS exhaust, only the titanium one is. Just wanted everyone to know that.

i would assume that the mufflers are wrapped in carbon fiber and just the tips of the mufflers are ti. from what i gather, everything else is stainless steel.

My point is its not full HKS like they said it is. Try to find it in one of their product brochures.
