Amuse R1 Titanium exhaust


I can't picture that exhaust fitted?
I'm guessing it comes out with a mad tyte JDM angle huh?
 
i would say so the under the axle exhausts usually do...looks cool an sounds class but its a pain in the a** for daily driving
 
True, I wonder if its any worse than the APEXi N1 and the HKS Silent Power exhausts :s
 
It's true that speed bumps are hard on under axle units, but unless you have combinations of:

1) really low car
2) mountain high speed bumps
3) said mountain high bump on narrow path divided by a high curb/barrier
4) going over the bump straight (most common mistake)
5) fat friends or ...gasp...fat girlfriend :nono:

I've found a lot of times, if the car is lower than normal, and there is a speed bump, I can clear it without scraping, if you go over it "sideways"

As you approach the hump, you quickly turn the wheel so that you basically end up in the opposite lane when the one of rear wheels begin to catch on the bump.

Don't believe me? Give it a try the next time you're out driving late - and stop with the parking brake and take a look under the car. The key here is as sideways as possible and going slow. :)

Of course there will be times when you just cannot go over the bump sideways due to traffic and/or a narrow path... however, in the city where I'm from, I can clear them 90% of the time...
 
Oh and if you don't want to spend so much.

There's always the Invidia/RSR EXMAG GTII

Somebody might want to save these images for future reference, I don't know how long these links will be good for... :p
 
Bon: HKS silent power is reasonablly quiet i believe. I think Rus is using it and it really quiet.
Amuse must be super loud as it has a straight through b pipe design with no silencer o_O
Must sound awesome though :D
 
fujitsubo do rm-01a in titanium version,

id never bother with any under axle type exhaust on anything that is daily driver
 
ok... so i ended up buying this exhaust due to the straight through titanium design. (Thanks Livvy :nice:)
It weighs the same as a spoon n1 backbox and is built superbly. The best i have come across so far. It is louder the n1, and being a straight through design with no mid silencer, the response of it is instant. It is a little loud, but i love it. Also used for daily drive.

enjoy

Also i have no problems atm with speed bumps. The part that goes under the lca is a tad bit low, however, due to the fact that it has no mid silencer, it is very well tucked in the middle.
 
I'd recommend the J's Racing 60RR exhaust.
but since you're running such a hardcore circuit exhaust on a stock engine, i don't think it's necessary you get one of these..
it'll just annoy you, trust me. My buddy got one of these for his Type R, annoying as hell. Sounds good as hell, but gets to ya..
 
j's is also a good option, but again, it's still v.loud.
i personally love it as it isnt as annoying as the spoon inside, outside it is louder than the spoon, but inside it is very reasonable.(i have the rear stripped out as well.)
 
amuse cus service is crap and seems every other exhaust has problems ranging from baffles falling apart, material arounf baffle breaking down, backbox splitting at weld to brackets breaking away

i personally would never get 1
 
for example, you buy new exhaust from amuse, it falls apart within couple weeks,

amuse wont give you refund or replace it, you have to send back yourself (£££) and pay shipping back to you (£££) and i beleive you have to pay additional repair fee

have a look around and see how many people have had problems with amuse titanium exhausts

problem is titanium is brittle and doesnt takes knocks and vibrations well so really is only suited to race cars which are stiff


people seem to jum on titanium bandwagon without doing their research
 
hmm.. i bought mine second hand, so price was good... as for the problems... havent come across any as of yet. But never the less, thanks for the heads up
 
dont get wrong, lots of people have them with no problems but exceptional no of people also seem to have problems
