Here is my previous system.


Yesterday I cut of steel pipes from the Downpipes to. Length 23". I will replace these pipes with Titanium pipes too. I have Speedriven 3" downpipes with 200 Race cats.
Those two pipes weight 8,8 lb and the same length of Titanium pipes weight 2,8 lb.+ the rest of the exhaust system.
