The FMF Ti pipes are only considered usable for one season of racing, that is what they sell them as anyway. I have noticed this with my two, they are both cracking around the frame mounting tabs...
I will likely only be using the first few inches of the headpipe if what I have in mind works out on the dyno....
I plan to make dyno test pieces in stainless then get the optimised design made up with Ti tube and carbon/Ti can. I will likely end up with a short flexy section somewhere in the system. Ti is very much more flexible that steel of course, when suitably treated.....
