Can anyone identify this Exhaust?

I google translated the info and i think its an all titanium set-up (not array). Here are the links to the only two videos i can find, any ideas??

Thanks to my before life dabbling in JDM land; thats a Blue-Wave racing exhaust:

http://www.bluewave-racing.com/bmw_mini/06.html#02

You can see the car here:

http://minkara.carview.co.jp/en/user...716/photo.aspx

where he ran the car with the bluewave exhaust until he had someone make something out of inconel which can be seen here:
http://minkara.carview.co.jp/en/part...bi=11&mo=10064

i'd say out of the exhausts listed above it looks closet to the blue wave, here's another video of a known bluewave http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zh2pVHes2oQ it sounds different i'm guessing due to diffrent header and s-pipe and x-pipe set-up?, anyways know to find out the all important price $$

The sound is similar to a Super sprint sport with a resonator, which might be easier to locate

im pretty sure it is. the car in your original video has the same diffuser built into the car's build log i showed.

http://minkara.carview.co.jp/en/user...9/profile.aspx

it also (before aero/body mods) has the same wheels as the car on the blue-wave racing website. not sure how Japan designates plates, but the last digit matches.

that i do not know. im sure it already sounds aggressive because the JDM Z4M's have the euro exhaust setup.

also, could you let me know the info of where/who/how much the exhaust is? maybe we can order together
