Well folks we're back... I wouldn't say by popular demand or anything but figured I'd share something we've been working on. Last year we got together with Tubi to help make a set of Titanium tips for our RS. This was before Porsche's announcement for the GT3 Ti Tequipment ones found on the 2010 RS'. Tubi's price ended up being a couple of hundred lower than Porsche's at $1200 but it was still way more than we thought reasonable. We put this on the back-burner and after several conversations with our chums at EVOMS and Todd came up with these

The blue flame treatment is an option at this point...


Here's the weight in grams which is 0.86 pounds


Here's the factory 2010 RS tips:


How light are they?


Compared to the factory non Ti 2010 GT3 tips:


Here's our larger diameter stainless steel SharkWerks tips by comparison:



Flame treatment vs non:


Either way we're making 4 dozen of these (scary thought) and if anyone is interested let us know The pricing will be $690-ish.

titanium in large diameter a possible option? your large diameter tips kick ***!

sharkster

Thanks man and these are larger diameter For strength etc... they have to be rolled (they're still slash-cut) and can't be as thin walled so to speak

sws1

Not sure, but at $690 per .68 lb (over RS TI tips), that might qualify for the priciest weight saving modification I've seen to date.

Any plans to offer something like the track exhaust in Ti?

IIRC, your track exhaust costs ~25% of an Akrapovic system and has very similar weight loss and power numbers

Looks awesome-tough to justify though, maybe previous customers get special pricing?

Larry Cable

I'm in (email sent) ... any chance you'll offer in black also?

sharkster

Right back at ya Larry

I totally understand and this is why I never went with the $1200 ones that we'd originally gotten made. Those made for a nice ornament heh... But less than half the cost (and weight lol) of the factory 2010 RS ones I figured this would be an option (albeit very decadent!) for non RS owners

Thought about it but a couple of concerns... the cost vs something that only weighs 11 pounds total anyways in stainless was the main thing. And we can't do the mufflers in ti- that's the killer

Hehe yes it's right up there with the Ti wheel bolts But in all fairness it's at least half the price of the factory ones And lighter still

Larry Cable

well it is about 1/2 the price of the Tubi's or the factory Ti tips and only about 2x the cost of sharky's SS-larger tips ...

Alex: Are they in stock or are you just testing the market?

sharkster

Hey there... actually yes they are finished/made and we are shipping them as of next week

PS How's the wheelies doing

malmasri

^ Love the wheels....best improvement for the money...Count me in for the new tail...PM sent

Shane O'Neill

Hi Alex,
How much would the flame treated ones delivered to Northern Ireland?
Thanks Shane

sharkster

Ok roger that malmasri I'll ping you later this week...
Hi Shane, usually when we use UPS/Fedex to ship out our exhaust it's about $150 or so to the UK. So figure a bit less than that. If we used regular USPS Mail it would take longer but be more like $40 or so?

Larry Cable

I'm going to Germany in a couple of weeks (June 7th) ... I could mail them from there or if anyone that Shane knows will be in the vincity of the ring on the 10th I could hand them over ...
