Wow. I leave for a few days and come back to this still going on?
People in MD can't drive anyways, it's a known fact in the metro area
Regardless, you can run true dual on an FB.. Just because the mufflers exit on both sides of the car doesn't mean thats the only way to have true duals. Haven't you seen two mufflers side-by-side on one side? I have, a lot - on a lot of RE powered cars including an RX-3 my buddy's dad just picked up - oh, and guess what - it was RACING BEAT who built it. I dont think RB would appreciate you making claims to them. You speak of personal experience of which I'm sure you have none - were you even alive when the first gen came out? The pre rx7 model all together? You have NO clue or "personal experience" of what R&D went on back then.
This thread is now a moo point, so I'm sorry we didn't help the original poster.

nope, theres room for 2 turbo mufflers in the stock spot. put em vertical like, and the tips can even look stock.
keep in mind the STOCK system for the FC is a single, it just Y's out to 2 mufflers
ok, so basically your saying Mazda added the second Muffler of 2nd gens to add extra weight while looking "cool" lmao.
power gains or not, hey, to be honest with you. i hate dual exhaust on fc its a pain in the *** to install , wieghs a ton, and hard to line up the tips even. so ima have to score me the apexi n1 single side.

the 1st gen muffler is big, but the 2 FC mufflers together are something like 30% bigger. plus it looks cool

ok 320b since you obviously got somethin stuck up your rear end heres some facts for you.
ive currently own 4 rx7's and have owned a total of 12 i probably have more experience with rx7's than you.
i didnt' make claim for racing beat. Racing beat makes claims for Racing beat thats why i cut & pasted off of THEIR website moron. oh and yeah i dont have any experience talking to Racing Beat except ive send rotor housigns to them and had at least 3 engines worth of irons lapped there besides buy literally thousands of dollars of their off the shelf parts. and calling them up for advice on numerous occasions.
and finally. you need to learn how to read properly and not post if you have nothing to add to the convo.
how much experience do YOU have with RB ? or with rx7's?
oh i guess YOUR the RE expert since you own 1 non turbo second gen huh
gtfoh man

I'm not going to start a pissing contest on who knows more - but i've got you beat on number of rexes owned just in the ones that RAN alone, not including parts cars.
My SE is not NA... the only NA 7 I have is the '85 GSL...
I've built cars mazda has used for marketing and countless sponsors - tuned cover cars, etc etc...
As for RB - my wholesale account alone passed more $ w/ them in one month than what you have probably spent in a year with them, lol.
I also do all my own engine work and dont "ship it off" to be built - you gain more experience doing it yourself. All of this is a side hobby on top of my day job, so I'd say I've done fairly well.
The only person that I know who has had more rx models than me is one320fb, but he's got old school

Funny things is 320b if you actually READ the posts in the thread in the order you would realize your actually AGREEING with me on the dual true exhaust issue just not on its application for 1st gens. go read it. i was the one FOR dual exhaust....but you HAD to chime in with your attempts to talk b.s wo/ reading the WHOLE thread
like i said READ before TYPING it MIGHT do you some good and prevent you from making an *** of yourself.
and for someone who claims to "not trying to start a pissing match" go reread your posts becuase your words seem to spell otherwise. well hey your such a big baller right?! cuz your such a big Spender at rB? gtfoh
