Default Titanium exhaust weighing 9 lbs...

Alas, this one is for the Porsche GT3 and not the S4. :-p

It weighs 9 lbs and saves about 50 lbs over the stock exhaust system.

Now why don't the tuners develop something like this for the S4?

Default Neuspeed has it for $1699.95 and weighs under 9 lbs but they use a fart can.

Default Cheap ... considering it is titanium. :-p

I think most of these titanium items are being made in small quantities in Taiwan. I believe titanium is difficult to work with and takes some very specialised equipment.

I don't think it is that easy to work with titanium.
