Haven't heard of one either. Most are made for Japanese imports. Ie HKS, Apexi and so on.

Dixis makes one. I'm sure there will be other manufacturers down the road.

Looks good. But thats on a japanese web site which it will probably cost an arm/leg. Its $2,420.10 for the catback

I know Dixis is really good, but it costs just too much... If you get catback with straight pipe, the total cost is gonna be over $4,347 + shipping and etc...

4 Million for an exhaust.

I had a titanium exhaust on my STi, they sound great and do not corrode, but they are expensive and even more so on our cars.

oops I've got wrong number! fixed.

coco_m3 · 10-07-2008, 01:13 PM

ok good, that scared me.

GT Haus's price is like $2,200 for just the rear section. thats on par with dixis which is overpriced. these companies are ripping the bmw owners off because they know they'll pay it!!

here's a link to a 100% titanium universal muffler from HKS for $375! it would look HORRIBLE on a 1-series but its a realistic price.

seriously. If you have a local shop that can work with titanium. That might be a route. Though i believe the process requires a lot of high end equipment, so i doubt any shop can do it.

The cost of titanium plays a role is the cost of the exhaust systems. When I bought my Greddy Ti catback for my Evo is was $850. Two months later the price jumped to $1100.
