JIC ti exhaust

Need some help guys, anyone that knows please chime in.
I am trying to research on the JIC ti exhaust, I have tried searching
and the results that I am getting is not consistant.
Couple questions, did JIC end up making a longer exhaust for the US evos?
Is there a O2 sensor bung or do I need to weld one on?

I have come across threads saying that someone had incidence of the JIC exhaust partially falling off while driving, are there design flaws on the mounting clamps?

I have narrowed down my exhaust choices to JIC TI, HKS 30th Anniv, and HKS Carbon TI. What are your thoughts?

I think that JIC is made at the same place that Magnaflow Ti is made and I had one of those. I'm not all about the slip fit design of those exhausts and it was too loud so I sold it. But overall it was a really nice system.

check out the JUN BL titanium exhausts. I'm thinking about ordering one for my car. I've heard very good things about their systems.

Which vendor can I get the JUN exhaust from?
Do they have a version that fits the USDM rear bumper?

well if your really interested in titanium i'd look at the magnaflow. They didn't just copy the jic. I think they actually make it for magnaflow. Magnaflow contracted someone in Japan to make these for them. I will get you alot better deal then any of the exhaust your looking at. with the magnaflow. give me a pm if interested.

I have had the JIC TI as long as ive had my car. I had it picked out before i bought my Evo. I ordered it the same day i picked up the car. ive loved it since i saw it in a mag on like a skyline or early Evo. i wasnt a fan of the slip fit at first but i put it on and didnt even use any hi-temp silicone to seal it and no leaks. but its nice also because you can move it around as to how fits in the bumper cutout. ive noticed alot of other exhaust with a 2 bolt flange tend to sit really close to one side of the bumper and rub. ive got my JIC perfect

At the time I bought my JIC Ti exhaust (about 2 yrs ago), there were two types, don't know if that is still the case. Mine is a Spartan II DE or something like that. It had the bung and did not blacken the bumper, at least not those parts of the bumper that can be seen by the casual observer. I have had no problems with loose fittings, but on mine, they are all flange and bolt deals, the other model did have some sort of slip fit arrangement, not sure how those have been holding up...

Sorry for asking a newbie question, but you can order the JIC with or without a resonator, what's the difference? In sound or in power?
