Here are the technical advantages of the TOMEI Ti Racing Titanium Muffler (Part No: 441001) for the Toyota 86 / Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ (ZN6/ZC6 FA20):
TOMEI Ti Racing Titanium Muffler – Technical Advantages
1. Full Titanium Construction
- Made from high-grade titanium (not just a titanium tip) for the entire system, including piping and muffler canister.
- Titanium offers superior strength-to-weight ratio and excellent thermal resistance over stainless steel.
- Provides enhanced corrosion resistance, particularly useful in wet or coastal environments.
2. Ultra-Lightweight Design
- Weighs approximately 4.6 kg (10.1 lbs) — over 50% lighter than the OEM steel exhaust.
- Reduces unsprung weight and improves vehicle dynamics:
- Sharper turn-in
- Better acceleration response
- Easier weight transfer in corners
3. Optimized Straight-Through Design
- Uses a free-flowing straight-through layout with minimal bends and restrictions.
- Increases exhaust gas velocity and reduces back pressure.
- Improves high-RPM breathing efficiency of the naturally aspirated FA20 engine.
4. Performance Gains
- Proven gains of approximately:
- +4.5–6.0 hp and +5.5 Nm (4.1 lb-ft) of torque in the mid to upper RPM range.
- Enhances throttle response and linear power delivery without requiring ECU tuning.
5. Aggressive, Motorsport-Inspired Sound
- Distinct dry titanium tone—high-pitched and sharp, yet controlled.
- Designed with race and time attack use in mind, delivering authentic NA exhaust note with minimal drone.
6. Precision Fitment for FA20 ZN6/ZC6 Platform
- Designed specifically for the Toyota 86 / Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S with FA20 engine.
- Bolt-on compatibility—retains stock mounting points and gasket placements.
- Compatible with stock and aftermarket headers/front pipes.
7. Includes Removable Silencer
- Comes with a bolt-in dB killer to reduce sound for street use or inspections.
- Allows user to switch between track mode and street-legal mode with minimal tools.
8. Heat Dissipation Efficiency
- Titanium cools faster than stainless steel, which helps reduce heat soak and maintains consistent engine performance during repeated hard driving.
- Lower surface temperature reduces heat transfer to surrounding components (e.g., rear bumper, diff).
9. Visually Striking Blue Burnt Finish
- The signature blue-purplish burnt titanium look signals motorsport quality and exotic appeal.
- Lightweight rolled tip and laser-etched TOMEI logo enhance its premium visual presence.
10. Track-Proven Durability
- Designed and tested under Japanese time attack conditions, proving long-term durability under heat and vibration stress.
- Preferred by tuners and circuit racers due to its balance of lightweight, strength, and flow.
