Titanium Exhaust Recommendations

I'm looking to get a new exhaust (catback or full), but I'm interested in a titanium one so as to save weight while gaining extra ponies.. if not full titanium, then maybe partially such as the muffler being Ti. I was originally looking at the JIC ST exhaust, but some guy just posted about how it fell apart while he was driving..

I was about to order it when I saw it.. yikes. Sooo.. any other recommendations for Ti exhausts? (and ones that won't melt our fat bumper!)

i got the updated jic magic full ti catback from boost solutions. has bung for o2 sensor, good strong clamp, extended tip...
it fit perfectly, sounds great and i have had no problems. it is an awesome piece, i'd recommend it.

Hm, I just found another thread in the Evo Tech forum but I figure this thread is a little more relevant.

This is Trial's new Ti exhaust - personally I think it looks nicer than JIC's!

In any case, I'd love to get my hands on either of these, or any other Ti exhaust someone would like to recommend? I take it the Trial one is a catback exhaust?

No the trial is a turbo back if you look at the pics there is no cat there.

On the vivid evo, their JIC's looks like its burning the bumper a little. Does the updated JIC's tip clear the bumper?

Yikes, no cat? Would that cause a CEL or cause me to fail emissions inspections?

But for $1100 and titanium turboback? That's incredible! Unless of course, it's just the muffler that's Ti, and the rest is SS? Still not bad though, we need more info on the Trial exhaust.
