Was there a reason why you went bigger on the piping out of the DP? Also, did that not affect the fitment?

Also, how was configuring the valves to work to the remote (I’m assuming they provide you with a bluetooth remote of some sort). What happens if that remote breaks… will there be a way to get a replacement? It would be tragic if the valves got stuck in a certain mode…

I’m very much considering ordering this exhaust but I just have a few concerns. I would be running it with an AA DP and i think it would sound pretty good.

I went bigger on the section after the DP because I have a Pure850 on the shelf and I thought it would help with backpressure since they create so much of it. Fitment was totally fine, everything fit as it should. As I said the only issue was the clearance of the brace but the bigger front section had nothing to do with that as the brace is further back. It comes with two remotes, both are pre-programmed already and I am pretty sure it's a generic remote. You could easily get another one.

Did the exhaust come with tips or or did you have to purchase it separately? Also did you have to specify titanium over stainless steel?

It comes with tips and yes you have to tell them if you want TI over SS.

Just ordered one from Jiangxi Boska Trading Co. and paid a little over $1200 after taxes and fees. Super professional speaking to the agent and what not and was estimated 15 days for production and another 5 for shipping.

So for those ordering one exhaust, how'd you do it? I see minimum orders of two sets required. Also, looks like its $1500 + $500 in shipping. Far more than mentioned in the thread. Aynone have a direct link to the supplier you used?

You have to contact the seller and you can buy just one. I paid $780 for the exhaust plus $350 for shipping and got it in 4 days.

This is what I ordered

Awesome. Thanks, brother. That video clip you posted sold me on it instantly. I’ve never been a fan of aftermarket exhausts. Ever. But this time I think I’ll actually do it. Sounds fantastic. 🤘🏼🤘🏼

Quick update on the titanium exhaust for those who are interested. I finally received it today after 30 business days. The majority of the time was spent waiting for them to make it. I specifically requested that they increase the diameter to 76mm (3") from 70mm (2.75") and they were happy to do it. Didn't have to pay extra either. I highly highly recommend you ask for this if you do order one.

After they finished it up and sent me a bunch of pictures and videos, they shipped it out via air after I gave them the thumbs up. It shipped out on Thursday and I got it next week on Wednesday. Super quick, cleared customs in half a day, and was picked up from UPS which made the final delivery. Everything was extremely well packed together and was wrapped in multiple layers of foam and plastic wrap. It all came in a big box which weighed about 50 lbs. They gave me 2 fobs for the valve controller which looks exactly the same as the ones from Valvetronic. They are fully aluminum as well and had a nice weight to it.

Overall pretty happy with the entire ordering process. I'm getting it installed hopefully this weekend and I'll record a few videos of the sound afterwards.

Man this looks great! I look forward to hearing those exhaust clips, still trying to figure out if I want SS or if I’m going to cough up the extra and get full TI. Good call on increasing to 3”

I was considering the MAD exhaust but, for the price this is a much better option. I believe most of these exhaust companies order from these sites and just marking them up anyway.

Agreed. I wonder if it would be possible to get a forum group buy organized

Total price including shipping was around $1600. I had one of my buddies go in for another item from their store and was able to get the price down a bit. I think they even reduced the price by $50 just recently.

Secondary question weight savings aside, does the full TI give off a different exhaust note or volume than the stainless? Have quotes for both lined up, hoping you’re able to get yours installed this weekend so we can get some sound clips and I can pull the trigger

Very interesting, hopefully over time folks will post more clips and maybe an install DIY. The price difference is enough to definitely take on some risk if it isn't chalked up to what it should be. Could easily leverage a shop to fix anything that doesn't work well and still come in under cost of one the "premier" exhaust systems.

You don't need a DIY video. You can put the exhaust together outside the car and then just install it. The stock exhaust unbolts where the downpipe ends and the rest is completely one piece. It's very easy to do.

Sorry I meant to highlight any work arounds or issues they encountered. The price point is ridiculous, just wondering if the products are consistent in quality. I couldnt find videos on YouTube, maybe more will pop up over time.

The shop was booked so I couldn't get it done. I'm scheduled for later this week to get it installed.

Here's a direct link to the vendor's page: Jiangxi Boska Trading Co., Ltd. - https://bskmy.en.alibaba.com/index.html

and here's the link to the one I bought - https://www.alibaba.com/product-deta...920077412.html
