Wow,

I would suggest a comma or period (not to mention capital letters) every couple of sentences and basic grammar. Honestly, there are lots of good exhausts for the Subarus. Greddy, Fujitsubo, Kakimoto, Blitz, blah, blah, blah, etc are all worthy.

San I couldn't agree with you more. I was a bit disappointed myself because I was under the impression that the whole axle back was titanium. Oh well........

If you want light... go Kakimoto... the top-of-the-line exhaust is full titanium... no fancy blue tip... the titantium on the piping is 1 inch thick (dunno about the cannister)... but I heard it's loud as f**k.

Well... my JIC magic has three version and I chose the semi-Ti... stainless steel pipe and Ti cannister... no false advertising there... and I love the ground clearance too.

In the end, it's your car and you decide what to put on and what your application is. Happy exhaust hunting.

Uuhhmm,

one inch thick? You meant to say 1mm. I looked into the Kakimoto Ti, but you will literally be heard for miles, no kidding. I'd probably look into the Fujitsubo, but like I said, I couldn't justify the extra cost for titanium once I actually felt how light the RSR was/is. Ask around, I'm pretty **** about weight (among other things).
