Did read you my post? Any other reputable company can make an exhaust that's just as good, but for much less. The excessive price has nothing to do with it's quality. It's mainly due to brand prestige, artificial rarity, and elitist snobs that think high price automatically means high quality and performance.

No, I just like to provoke you because you're a sensitive, lame, and irritating person that does not get logic very well. Look up a word? I actually read the dictionary every damn day.

Yes I read your post, my comment was also not individually pointed at you. The point I'm trying to get across is pretty simple. Just because a company makes an exhaust for an Evo does'nt mean it must be cheap in price. Yes an Exhaust is pretty simple, The manufacturing process to make it however can be done any number of ways which will have a impact on price. I have seen Tubi, Hamann, Renn Tech that match this exhaust in price. They are very nice as well and people don't whine and complain aboth their prices. To say that the price has nothing to do with quality is an ignorant statement. It costs alot to manufacture and source materials for an exhausts made out of Titanium. I would love to see "Any reputable company" make a copy of the exhaust above and see what the price comes out as. Personally, I would not buy this exhaust for my car, I'm not that rich and I don't have a X, But I can understand why it is priced they way it is and if I had money coming out my ears I'd rock it.

I did not say that price has nothing to do with quality. What I said is that it's excessive price has nothing to do with it's quality. Key word "excessive".

One of the legendary things about Amuse is that every exhaust is custom-made to order. Amuse is the only company that allows the end user to select their own custom-finish for their exhaust. Amuse offers 9 different gradation combinations, from full blue canister's and tips to no blue at all.

Be sure to buy your Amuse products from Bulletproof Automotive. We are the only Authorized Amuse distributor in North America. By purchasing from us we can guarantee these options and your satisfaction.

Powerhouse Amuse does make very high quality products but I guarantee the Megan exhaust for the Evo X will have 95% of the looks, make just as much power (or more), and be about an 1/8 of the cost. If I had a bunch of extra cash sitting around I would rock it.
