Someone should pioneer titanium exhaust
as title states. its roughly $48 per foot. so someone with money and welding experience. titanium exhaust always sounds good on youtube cars why not on our beloved v6's

After studying the exhaust route of the evo8 I predicted the exhaust path on the TL will be about the same as the evo's.
No cutting was performed. Only a clamp hanger was installed. The rear muffler is secured by zip ties. Test them out on your car!
Well, in some ways, this has been done already See quote above from ACCURATEin.

I thought you were a poor 18 year old? Why keep bringing up expensive projects when there is other things the money would be better spent on. A 2nd gen tl is not worth a titanium exhaust. Just save your money for that 6 speed swap.

read carefully. i said someone with money and welding experience (none of those do i possess). and why would a 3g have more potential than a 2g performance wise. 3g seems bulkier to me. engine has headers cast onto the engine. basically same difficulty for end goals except 2g tl seems like itd be more aerodynamic

And no, the 2G isn't more aerodynamic.

2g tl are suppose to be either aluminum or light front sub frame as well. better handling can come from stock suspension setup if your going to race itd be aftermarket. higher compression by.5 doesnt outdo the fact that the headers are cast onto the heads.. and the worse head design. and i can swap in a 6mt and im going to this summer. also there is definetly more frontal area for wind to hit on a 3g tl

The head design isn't worse than 2g...get used to the cast in... THEY FLOW VERY WELL. You might just be used to the term "headers", as if its the re-invented wheel. For those looking to get max numbers out of N/A, they're going to have to dig into the motor, bottom, top, the whole thing, Header or PCD isn't going to be deciding factor. What gain difference is there from 2g headers, and 3g PCDs?
Now...I don't understand the rest of your post, so I can't comment. I just have no clue what you said

Grab the 2 cars, install the same top of the line suspension on both...3g is going to win....But that's not important.

3G TL's have the stylish sports luxury sedan aerodynamic-look. The 2G on the other hand, doesn't have that sporty look. To me, they really resemble the look of the Vigor/Legend look of the early 90's. Thus, little aerodynamic was done since then.

You are trying to tell 3G people in the 3G forum that a 2g is better. That is like trying to convince Xbox fanboys ps3 is better. In these types of arguments facts go out the window and people think and reply based on emotions. The 2nd gen is better in some ways, but it is pointless and a waste of time trying to convince 3G owners that. This argument affects their emotions not rational thinking.
I bet 3G owners think the dbw is better also.
