List of full Titanium cat-backs

Valvetronic makes a full titanium catback that apparently sheds 60lbs off the car compared to the stock system. The problem is they don't make a dual-mid pipe version, just the single. Personally, I don't like the sound of their single midpipe as it makes it sound like a 350z with an exhaust IMO (especially when paired with catless DP's).

They did a tremendous job and kudos to them, but it boils down to personal opinion and I don't love the sound that the single midpipe offers.

Could we put together a list of options for full titanium catbacks that feature a dual midpipe?

Thanks

The ones I'm aware of (apart from Valvetronic) are the exhausts from R44 and Akrapovic.
They both meet the criteria - full titanium and with dual midpipes

Here are some links:

Akrapovic
1. Rear section: https://www.akrapovic.com/en/car/pro...89&yearId=6394
2. Midpipe: https://www.akrapovic.com/en/car/pro...89&yearId=6394

Hey,

So the stock system weights in at around 37KG and our system is 20KG so almost half the weight which is pretty crazy.

Feel free to shoot me a message across if there's anything else I could help with.

I just installed bomiz on my g80, full titanium catback. Supposedly this is the only exhaust out there right now from Bomiz but they plan to release it more generally.

I have the valvetronic and love it. Definitely saves on the weight. I also had a TT 370z. I don't think it sounds like a 370z until you change the down pipes.
