I was looking for maximum performance without spending the big bucks. From the turbo, I'm running the HKS dowpipe, a Bonez hi-flow cat, and a local good-ol-boy shop installed a 3" single pipe back to a 3" in/out Borla stainless straight-thru muffler. They did a nice job. It's still not exactly cheap--I figure I've spent about $800. for the complete turbo-back system.



It's not as loud as I thought it would be, but some might consider it loud. I drove it across town on the interstate the other day, and it drones a little at cruise, but that's the way it is, and I LIKE it!

 

i only have one complaint about the N1's and that's the fact that the actual mufflers have to sit on an angle and they're too ******* low under the car. thank god i moved away from florida aka the land of speed bumps. i just can't believe that they would design a cat back for a car and not even think about the fact that they won't fit next to the gas tank... other than that i love them, but if you have to deal with any state inspections like i do in NJ then definately pick up the silencers. or find some mechanic that will just sell you a sticker.

 

lol good looking out rxheaven i think im going to get good ol Racing Beat.. =0) :yum:

 

the mufflers are made in japan on the racing beat or used to be, they changed muffler makers but i think theyre sitll made overseas

 

:wiggle: made in taiwan isnt everything lol. RB had RSR in japan manufacturing the exhaust but when prices got high they changed manufacterers i dont know if they made here in the U.S.A or overseas, but racing beat is a good company or why would mazda let them design parts for their cars ex. the mazdaspeed protege with racing beat mods on it!!! there a tight company and from what i seen so far there products are always goooood

 

prdrx7 told me that the hks was as good as the rb exhaust can anyone rectify that? Does anyone have hks catback on thier FC

 

the corksport is th cheapest you can get and it sounds good too but it'd way loud if you dont have a cat.
