Wow! This cat-back exhaust from JIC is COMPLETELY formed of titanium. Yep, not just a blued titanium tip, not just a titanium muffler, but the entire length of pipe as well. Includes gaskets and hardware.
Features a one-piece center section.
Fits all '02 WRX.

Pros:
Only weighs 14lbs., good looking, maximum HP increase
Cons:
EXPENSIVE
The picture of the exhaust system on the right hand side, I believe is for a WRX. The JIC Bullet Titanium Catback that I installed was for a 2000 2.5RS. The two piece catback exhaust is divided into two pieces, with a midpipe and resonator and the muffler section. Pipe size is 60mm (2.25"). My 2000 RS with just about every bolt on mod known to man, already had borla headers, random tech cat, custom made midpipe and STI muffler. The JIC exhaust bolted up to the random tech cat with no modification. The fit and finish was the highest standard I've ever seen. The system comes with a silencer installed and my impressions of the system is with the silencer in place. Immediately after installation I road tested it and I felt a very real increase in power over the existing exhaust, the sound is deep and nasty sounding. I assume it doen't get much better than this.

Pros:
Sound, Looks, Power
Cons:
Rear Hanger Fitting
I have the Stanless Steel Version of this exhaust. Not as light as the titanium but it is pretty light. The sound is amazing! Not as loud as I thought is was going to be. But for sure louder then my friends HKS Hyper. Install was a breez. It comes with a silencer if you need to DL your car or whatever. The hp gain WAS noticeable, i think you get like 13 hps on this model. The only problem I had was the rear hanger the holds the muffler was a little tough to get where it should be, but i bought it off of ebay and it came with no directions. Overall kick ass exhaust

Pros:
Quality, Quality, did i mention Quality?
Cons:
Price
This exhaust is top notch from the quality stand point. Their welds are perfect and can tell that this system was made from quality parts. However it is about double the price of regular exhausts. But hey...you pay for what you get

i love this this it is so light looks sexy as hell and it sounds great...only thing on my 06 sti was that i have to cut my rear defuser and drill larger holes on the stock down pipe to fit the bolts that came with the exhaust
