Step 4: Selecting a Catback Exhaust That is Right for Me
With a comprehensive list of full Titanium catback exhausts available, I was able to further narrow my requirements according to my preferences in no particular order:
Weight Matters!
Since my days as a drag racer, I knew that shedding weight here and there can add up quickly, even if it was only a few pounds. It is no secret that a lighter car accelerates and stops quicker in addition to handling better. Plus, gas mileage on a daily driven car will improve albeit by a small percentage (more from less restriction than weight savings, but every little bit counts rights?). As such, the lighter the titanium catback exhaust, the higher it ranked.
Sound
A great exhaust produces a distinctive, not too ricey exhaust note. It could not be too loud that I would have to worry about my neighbors complaining when I leave or return to my house. But the titanium exhaust had to be more aggressive in tone than the stock exhaust.
