rp 50 mm dual exhaust i think

My friend has that. It's loud and it makes his car sound like a Honda. I don't know if that's how it usually sounds, or if the mufflers are burned out. Either way it wouldn't be my top choice.

I've wanted a borla catback, but when I went to their site (can't remember it now) it didn't show anything related to RX-7s. Didn't they stop doing parts for RX-7s a while ago?

Where did ya find the information on the Borla catback you're looking at?

Im running a single 2.5" Catco converter from Summit racing, cost $70, and a Kooks Headers custom stainless exaust with the Borla Xr-1 mufflers, it passes NYS emissions, but its still loud. After hearing 13B ace's car with the Racing Beat, I would DEFINITLY go with it. Its worth the money. $340 for a dp is way too much money by the way

I have Borla, toooooo loud, go with the Racing Beat.

Sheesh! How loud can it be? My TII currently has nothing but the downpipe attached to the turbo, and I started it up. It ain't that loud! Trust me, when one of these big American iron V-8's at the dragstrip fires up with open exhaust, now that's focking loud!!! I have driven my car with just the cats and no mufflers, and yeah, it gets on your nerves a little after a few dozen miles, but no big thing.

I think I'll run the N1 single when I do get a catback. I just don't like that big *** 4.5" tip.

Maybe we got it good here in Virginia, but I think I could roll through town with no exhaust and the cops wouldn't even look at me.
