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![Big Grin](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
The blue flame treatment is an option at this point...

How light are they?

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.

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?

Right back at ya Larry![evilgrin](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/evilgrin.gif)
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![Wink](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
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![Frown](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
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

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?

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 ...
