Amuse Ericsson Ti Exhaust
Does anybody have any idea what the cost of this beautiful exhaust will be? I believe it to be the "arc of the covenant" or exhaust systems. Seeing how it is Japanese, and built for European vehicles, my guess is $5,000+. I wonder what the weight savings is.

Their website went live yesterday.
980,000 JPY. That is substantially more than I had anticipated. I don't imagine they will sell too many $10,000 mufflers. It sure is a work of art though. |

With the exception that the tips are entirely blue. The overall setup reminds me alot of the e46 GruppeM Ti exhaust. And I dig everything about it except for the space in my pocket where that $10k would be missing from.

10K is for the full header back exhaust... the cat back system is 6.5K and the tips can be customized for the seller. The level of blue can be adjusted or you can go with no blue...

Any performance numbers on this baby? heh
And, since my final decision is keeping the 19" rims till tires die, I can afford spending 10k on this. But only if the numbers warrant it. Last edited by Greenspotpop; 04-25-2008 at 09:19 PM.. |

Another question, how is the companies English? I have studied Japanese for 3 years and can read basic Katakana/Hiragana. If I call them at their website, how is their English support. For some reason, your confidence in the company is making me want to order one, the 980,000 Yen system. Also, for that amount, did you CC# them, or offer deposit/paid in full? Any details would be appreciated, since I am in the market for a top end exhaust. I can not speak Japanese, but can read/understand it. Please let me know how their department works! |

Also, since I own a SSII, I willl want to go full blue. I think that would look crazy/cartoonish.
On a side note, this exhaust would work for the Sedan right? (E90) |

You are looking at $11k+ for this exhaust in the US:

Sorry to bump this thread, but, to PencilGeek, willl this whole system work on the E90 Sedan? If it takes a couple of months, I woudnt mind to order this now! But only if it works on a sedan!
Edit: I live in the Vancouver, Canada Area. Doing a google, I dont even know who I can trust to do this for me... |

Hence, I'll never ever buy another titantium exhaust again as much as I love the sound of titanium & weight savings. Not trying to knock on the Ericsson/Amuse, just explaining what I personally went through.

It's not really an Amuse issue specifically, it's more of all titanium exhaust issue in general. I've heard of other brands of titanium exhaust having the same exact issue I had.
