Looks like good quality, but I'm not so sure about how it sounds. I know another forum member has the titanium version but this is going to sound a bit different.

Patrick at Litespeed is a good guy with good products. Very few options for full catback exhaust that are well priced.

Did you feel the increase in HP and TQ? I was reading on their website their is a gain of 10HP and 19TQ. I want to get a little more feedback as i'm on the fence between this full exhaust vs. megan racing axel back.

Thanks.

Yes you feel a great increase in torque. To be honest, the megan racing axel back does nothing to the car just for looks. With this exhaust it helps both looks and power. Megan axel back is just an axel back, were as the Litespeed is a full catback exhaust.

The titanium weighs only 15 pounds. Titanium has a unique sounds. The stainless steel is a little less aggressive . But good thou.

Only 15lbs? WOW, that's impressive... Darn, SS is less aggressive.. I was hoping you wouldn't say that as I watched your video clip on the dyno a few times and the sound of it was a BEAST!!!
