If you are looking to save the most weight at the rear of your GR86 or BRZ, you should consider running Remark's R1 Spec Axleback. The Remark Axleback offers a quick, clean and cost effective solution to REV up that FA20 while saving a ton of weight being a single exit system.

Being that this is an axleback, it allows you to build your exhaust in stages and gives the option to interchange with the OE components. If you want to create a full cat-back system, add our high flow midpipe kit with resonator. You can go even further by adding our front pipe with high flow catalytic converter for better performance.

Key Features:

• Piping Diameter: 2.5inch, mandrel bent pipe
• Tip Diameter: 4.5inch tip design slant style tip
• Titanium / T304 Stainless Steel & TIG Welded
• Optimal weight reduction: Stainless - 18.2 lbs, Titanium - 14.6 lbs.
• Direct bolt on with easy installation to OEM mid pipe
• Can have a silencer installed

Mandrel Bent Piping, No Pie Cuts

No unneeded pie cuts with our systems. Many enthusiasts like the look of pie cuts but in our opinion the aesthetic is not worth the potential for failure, and added exhaust gas turbulence. The use of pie cuts was a solution to create a bend when bending is not an option or the bend radius is too tight. For most front engine, rear exit exhaust systems, there is no need for pie cuts. Our experienced staff and CNC mandrel benders are able to bend a single pipe with multiple mandrel bends.

Point of Failure

Most exhaust system failures happen at the welds regardless of the material. Each additional weld for the pie cut bend is a potential point of failure. Failure at the weld can be caused by: contamination of the materials, poor fitment of components, improper welding technique, poor gas coverage, too little heat, too much heat, welded too fast, welded too slow, and the list goes on. So many different things have to be executed properly to obtain a strong weld. We do not see a point of unnecessarily increasing risk of failure.

Turbulence

One of the main reasons to change to a performance exhaust is for increased power which is achieved by improving the flow of exhaust gases. A single mandrel bend is smoother and stronger than using multiple pie cuts to form the same angle bend. Each weld creates turbulence as the surface is not smooth. Think of the Winter Olympics and the downhill luge. The course is a series of smooth turns in both directions as well as elevation changes like the piping of an exhaust system. Imagine if each bend was made of pie cuts, each weld would be a bump. If you were a competitor, would you rather take the smooth course or the one compromised of mini bends and tons of bumps.
