Yah I have heard of the S2K Amuse stuff having issues with the inner baffle falling apart etc. And they did try and make these exhausts as light as possible, so thin piping does make sense. My greddy Ti before had thin piping as well and got dented just from driving over rocks or whatever.

Street driving is mostly what I will be using this for and occasional HPDE. Other than that not planning on running the car super hard.

BTW I have a question about your S2K amuse exhaust. After you got it hot on the track did all the pipes turn colors? I ahve seen a few with purple and blue pipes, but they come silver so I am kinda confused if that actually happens naturally.

Yeah, mine turned green lol. It's all from the heat causing it to do that. My dixis for the m3 did that also. I'm not trying to knock on the Amuse for the evo as I have no idea if they're known for that on the evo. However, Amuse would look pretty bad *** on a TB What about other companies that have titanium exhaust such as Exas, Ralliart or Still Way?

I had the amuse R1-Titan on my s2000. I did not track my car but i used it for daily driving and i found that my piping never really dented at all from normal daily driving. My piping was turning more purple than green. Also my exhaust did not have any problems with rattling either. The Amuse quality is amazing. The welds were so beautiful and the sound was DEEP and BASS toned.

I got the ARC used a couple years ago. Really the nicest exhaust I have had on the car. I had a Greddy Ti as well before and didn't like it.
