power for sure, the quality ,i'm not sure on that one.
Usually the ARC is not a real power making parts, but the quality is unbeatable.
Let say i'm almost 100% sure the ARC exhaust wont make a same whp as a Buschur , but the quality is so different its not even funny.
So i never had the Amuse one , but seems to me it is a very capable exhaust to make whp + looks like to me is a high end quality.
So you got the best from both world.

The cheaper one is made by Toyota and massed produced and the more expensive one is made by Ferrari in limited numbers.

The reasons why the Ferrari is more expensive are these:

1. Brand prestige/Snobbery.
2. Limited production run.
3. The willingness of a dumbass rich person that thinks that high price alone means high quality and performance.

Do you get now? Which one would you buy? If it's the Ferrari you would be lame and maybe dumb.

Price alone is a poor indicator of quality.
damn... i picked the ferrari, but also because ferrari just has so much more passion and history. Also i'm not even going to lie i'm a label ***** let me flaunt my swag

ya i want to see this exhaust in action, the thing about the ferrari and toyota, the way i see it is you only live once, so if you have the money and like this exhaust then go ahead and buy it , but if you dont have the money dont trash it just because you dont have the money, i am the kinda person, that rather wait a few more weeks save up a few more bucks to buy something that i wont regret, like i saw somewere before

cheap + fast = not reliable
Reliable + cheap= not fast
Reliable + fast= not cheap, so you always have to keep that in mind, going a bit off topic, this is the same theory that probably ttp is going to take on there chip, they know that if they put there chip for a very low price , everyone is going to have one, and the support/feedback will be outrages, but if they charged at a reasonable price with a lil bit of markup they will have a smaller crowd to deal with (support wise) and less complains or w.e.
thats just my .02

Good for you. I don't really care anyway. I just wanted to make the point that higher price and a shinier badge does not automatically mean better. More passion? That does not apply to me. I'm a cyborg devoid of passion.

You equations does not represent reality in it's entirety.

Back in the day Ferraris were expensive + fast = not reliable. When the NSX came about it put much more expensive super cars to shame. The NSX was relatively cheap + just as fast = more reliable. So, you are wrong.

That's my two dollars. More money is better, right?

Again, I am not bashing the exhaust itself. I am bashing the price.

I using ferraris as an example, but you cant compare an evo to a GTR, more price , more relieabilty = faster,

thats just my 14.00, thats all i have in my wallet
