Double the sound!!! Double the look!!! Double the PRICE!!! Just kidding. Kappasphere is very excited to release the KS2 exhaust for the Solstice. The KS1, for those who have seen and heard it in person, is likely the best available single tip exhaust for the Solstice. We are confident the KS2 has taken it a step further. The dual tip offers a dramatic look to the rear while still staying subtle. The growl of exhaust note resembles that of a race bread inline six while still remaining drone free like the KS1. We have heard your requests for a full cat back solution and made the KS2 just that along with offering a CB pipe for the KS1.

Like the KS1, the KS2 was designed specifically for the Solstice from scratch. We went to a master who has building exhausts for 30 years. These exhausts are hand welded T304 Stainless steel so they will not rust. Also, due to the variances in the cars, the KS2 offers an adjustable tip to ensure a quality fit and finish.

Double the fun, double the pleasure, double the excitement for only $75 more then the KS1. Check out the site for more details.

Exactly. If we had the polished can and piping, along with angular tips, etc. the price would be well over $600. Plus the can is not really visible so it seems pointless for you to pay more for something you will see once and then install and cover with the valance. For those who want polished cans and angular tips, you can take it to a shop and have it done. This way those who want it can pay extra and those who don't care dont have to pay more. It is still T304 Stainless Steel so it should polish up just like the KS1.

It think it was a very good idea. Is the muffler a one-off or is it a Magnaflow can or some other vendor's can.

The piping is stock diameter. As stated above the KS2 and KS1 were both designed from scratched. We did not simply take a universal muffler and slapp on some tips as this is not the best thing for the car. We wouldn't sell you a body kit for a Civic that has been modified to fit, and we won't sell you a universal exhaust that has been modified to fit either.

I really like y'alls setup. Looks very good. I was on the fence regarding your single outlet versus the "other's" dual outlets, and I now know for sure that I will be going with your dual. I really like that you didn't just take something off the shelf.

The exhaust is a part of one of our Holiday Specials so anyone on the fence should check it out! Get the rear valance, dual tip exhaust, and fujita CAI for $110 off!

The pipes are not really as bad as the ones they chose to photograph. I think they were trying to control expectations. While I did not polish all of mine, I did spend a few minutes on each and polished off some of the welding discolor. See the pictures here:
