Where is the titanium axle-back?

I would love to see a nice titanium axle-back with nice mandrel bent tubing for the 08 lancer!

Example (Agency Power cat-back for Mazda RX-8):

Only the tip is Ti on the Ti-C. The agency power one looks like it's a full Ti system (looks pricey, tho).

Titanium has many good benefits:

- Great corrosion resistance
- Weighs less than steel
- Looks really good

I wouldn't mind paying the extra cash for a nice looking titanium system.

Hmmm, according to the Agency Power website, only the tip (and in some cases, the muffler) is Ti - the rest of the system is T304 stainless steel.

I guess a full Ti system would cost too much to be marketable....

Oh, and they have a full catback and cat delete pipe for the Evo X already, but nothing for us poor plebians....

No, most evoX stuff won't work on our cars. The Evo X has a duel outlet exhaust, ours is only single.

Some, but not all. 90% of the drivetrain parts won't, because the drivetrains are so different. Obviously, some of the motor stuff will swap since they're both based off the 4B11 design. But things like exhaust will be totally different.
