Franky I can't imagine buying anything that Amuze sells, they are so overpriced.

Steel prices are anywhere from $650-$800 per ton wholesale. The spot price for titanium is a bit over $1100 per ounce. Most titanium alloys are about 80-90% pure, so I wouldn't say it's over priced. Considering the base metal prices, I'd say your average steel exhaust is over priced.

Despite their beautiful finishes and workmanship I would say that they aren't worth the premium unless you're putting together a true show car or a finely tuned race car where every pound will count.

The titanium exhaust I can understand, but how do you explain their HFC's that appear to be SS? They are 4 times the price of the Stillen and Berk parts!

The price for the HFC also includes the cost of a front pipe. It is a "package deal" from Amuse

Ah ok, that's better. Should probably word the description on the web site a little better, it's a little vague. In the picture you see a piece of straight pipe in the background so initially you can't even identify it.

Sorry about the confusion.
