I'm from Spain, 91 NSX owner. I would be interested in titanium test pipes if the price is as good as the titanium exhaust.
I was thinking to buy DC sports Headers, but now I'll weigh up titanium headers option.

Headers, only if they make power and not just save weight.
I think a sound clip would possibly intice buyers. Maybe with and w/out cats.
and with a decent camera and mic. i took a vid of my exhaust and it sounds nothing like it does in real life.
I knew I've seen this somewhere. See post #14 from 2009.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I have no idea if this is the original GT-One (I think it is) vs. a knockoff. See post(s) below... You have to admit.. they look darn similar. The OP's pic might be the original GT-Ones also.. who knows...

If you feel so strongly about it then i'm sure you're confident this is the original? Now I wonder why the bluing of the Ti is so disproportionate as basic logic would lead me to believe. Why would the inlet on one muffler be more blue (theoritically due to higher heat) than the outlet of the other muffler? I'd expect that from a knockoff but not from GT-One/Sorcery or whatever. Not expecting you to know.. just putting it out there.^this is the original GT-One Ver3, please do not compare this to the fake knock off ones

titanium is hard to bent, so they had to weld it in section, the first batch had some weld problems so this second batch needs to add extra "weld" to the main pipe, after the weld they put the muffler to an oven for "heat treated" so the bottom of the muffler will be heat more then the top part! the heat goes up!
i went to the factory in Japan where my exhaust was made so i know which one is original!

Sorry, i'm really not trying to be a d1ck or anything and this probably goes way off topic so it'll be my last post on the bluing subject. Your explanation still makes no sense to me. I'm talking about the bluing in the mufflers not the bends. In any case, I don't care enough to debate the issue. :smile:
are these made at the same factory?
^^^ good comparo. i wouldn't be surprised if the copy hasn't been made yet (pending GB) and the pic is the original 
gosh.. i'm just a trouble maker... lol

I'm not sure about that... Evidently, Manila is now on the short list as well!

Original?
Copy?
That's an excellent copy if it is one. . . They even got the brackets that hold the mufflers together the same!
Need the sound clips!! :biggrin:
They look the same because they are the same. Its not a knock off because you are looking at the same titanium piece made in the same factory. The difference is the other one is $2000 more. I know its painful to pay $2000 more of the same stuff.

Say it ain't so :biggrin:
I will try to post one up soon. Just gotta find it/get it from my friend.
They "Artificially" blue it with a torch because well, blue is pretty. So they blue the cans in batches and I'm sure those two are from the same batch and they just laid them down next to each other in the jig and completed the system. The only true "bluing" is at the weld joints and actually its the sign of a weak titanium weld. Not a issue in this application but if it was a heavily loaded weld it would have to be redone.

Hapa88,Couple of questions:
1) Is there a single tip version available?
2) Why is the application for 1996-2000? Based on the pictures this looks to be an exhaust that fits all NSXs 1991-2005 (where 1995+ requires some adapters)
Yes a single tip version can be special ordered.
This was installed in a 96-00 http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=128041
jdm monkey,
Thanks for the reply but you've failed to answer question #2.
