I purchased a Racing Beat header and presilencer to replace my leaking stock counterparts. Can't wait to get them in and be able to drive around without an exhaust leak under my nose. Hope it adds a few hp too.

ooh nice

ILUVMY88CABRIO 03-18-2003 02:50 PM

Are you planning on using the stock cat back? I would recomend getting the RB cat back, the stock mufflers sound like **** after you open up the rest of the exhaust.

i think they sound cool, its what a rotary should sound like

I just put on my rb header and presilencer, and I still have the stock catback...I don't mind the sound at all,

I think it sounds kind of intimidating

ILUVMY88CABRIO 03-18-2003 03:52 PM

RB sounds much better though.

yeah no honda sounding 7's. Did you get the RB cat replacement pipe im pretty sure its comes with the presilencer. I would get teh RB cat back it sounds nice!. Do the headers bolt on to the stock cats if you wanted them too? i plan on getting the racing complete exhaust system but i will start with the catback and see if i should str8 pipe it or leave the cats on :meow: https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif

Keeping the stock catback for now. Need to concentrate on fixing my fd. I'll get something eventually. I've been considering the Cork Sport single catback. Racing Beat catbacks are too quiet in my opinion.

Stealth is the key with an FC, nothing better than whooping ass with a quiet car. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

ILUVMY88CABRIO 03-19-2003 04:03 AM

Yup, that's what I loved when I was at the strip. I had to be the quietest car there, but I was the fastest import, hanging with the loud ass V8s. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

You should feel the difference with just a header swap on it.I love my RB header. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

TurboSmoke 03-19-2003 07:53 AM

i was thinkin about the apexi n1 duels or the greddy catback power extreme what do you think for a s4 TII?

CrazyAssRX7 03-19-2003 10:39 AM

the rb catbacks may be quiet but they are probably the most affective and will give you more power than any other cat back in the market

and about quiet.....

when you get that rb header trust me its going to be loud compared to your stock applications

well when you get some money to spend on the fc and not the fd

that is so freaking true. You know how mad i get when i see a honda driving past me doing 15pmh and it sounds like its doing 76mph and its 2 feet ahead of me. the werst **** is you can stil hear them 4 blocks downs and its sounds like there drag racing lol. I want the car to be louder than the original exhaust but not to loud that it sounds disgusting. i think the rb is your best bet theyve dont there homework and specifically desinged it for rx7's in mind and you know rotaries have a drone sound to them. i hope that when i put my rb complete exhaust sytem it wont be tooo loud

ROTARYROCKET7 03-19-2003 10:47 AM

yo i saw a gtu with a smaller exhaust than my car whats that about i thought the gtu was suppose to be on top of the gxl and my exhaust is bigger than the gtu..

I really like the n1 duals, but the price for dual exhausts is nuts. I'm just going to get a single. Less weight and money. I'd rather put the funds into my fd.

Silver Ninety Three 03-19-2003 12:07 PM

The gtu model is below the gxl. Didn't come standard with lsd. The exhaust might have been an aftermarket stock replacement, like the one that came on my car.
