A local shop sells their exhaust systems and Google brings up a lot of RX-7 sites/boards talking about their exhaust systems.



I was unable to find their site though.

i've never dealt with these people so i don't know how they do business, but this is the place i've been informed where one may get a new MindTrain exhaust system.

I heard good things about them a while ago, but nothing in the past couple of years.

i have a mind train mid pipe on my fd.....it's mild steel but has held up pretty well for the past two years. it has some mild surface rust, but other than that, it's a great part.

i have heard nothing but good things about MindTrain. i remember when they were still in business as MindTrain. i have always held true to Racing Beat, so i have no firsthand experiences with MindTrain exhaust systems, but i would imagine they are top quality based on hearing people talk about their experiences. also, i remember MindTrain had a close relationship with Lake Cities Rotary (when they were still around as well - Spoakne, WA - i believe) anyway times were good for rotaries back then ... i reminisce

I hear that mindtrain headers work great on 13B's.Supposedly just as good as RB anyways.Not like alot of cheap stuff they say works on rotaries.

Try (213)836-4106...that's what my catalog says anyway. I have one of

their over axle pipes on my car in my custom exhaust - it was like

$50 and is .120 wall steel - nicely made.

Their 12A headers are neat because you can bolt them right up to the

stock catalytic converter location (with a decent cat I would hope).

Also the bend of the rear pipe isn't as severe as the Racing Beat

header. Their 13B headers use much larger diameter primaries - not

sure if this is a good thing.
