Anybody ever pulled a dent out of titanium? I have a titanium exhaust with a big dent from bottoming out from the previous owner. Here are pics...
I can't do the drill method since there is nobody locally that can weld titanium and I've heard mixed reviews about putting water in it to freeze the dent out. I was thinking of using a heat gun and a suction cup. What have you guys done to fix dents like this? Can experts chime in?

i'm no expert, but i don't think a heat gun and suction cup will work on titanium. you're gonna need hercules!!!
all joking aside, take it to a muffler shop and see what they recommend.
