Hey just as long as you don't get an exhaust that sounds like 50 pound bumble bee. I remember seeing a real nasty FD at a local carshow last year; baby blue, big gaudy chrome wheels, real nasty body kit, gross wing, and the LOUDEST FART CANNON ever narfing out the nastiest rotary engine babble!! Ugghh, I'm surprised I ever bought an FD after hearing that thing.... But I've heard other FD's that practically hypnotize me with their sweet tunes!! Guess the other guy just bought all his parts from "Bargain Bob's Ricer Parts".

RB dual is the best sound when you have a midpipe and downpipe in my opinoin.



and it has 3 inch piping, and splits up to 2x1.75 inch straight through pipes

Is that a "racing exhaust"? I thought that the HKS carbon fiber titanium exhaust was more of a true freeflowing exhaust, which I have always assumed with the FD makes an obnoxious exhaust note. Hopefully I'm wrong, I just don't want to spend big bucks on an earbleeder. I personally would much rather hear my turbos over my exhaust, which I know may not even be possible with a catback & downpipe. High flowing + deep, low racey roar = perfect!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

i heard that the HKS's pipe diameter shrinks inside the can, restricting flow...but im not 100% on that

Get a racing beat or PFS and you are set.

Well before I make a decision I need to get some more info on this "Border Burnout" that thing intrigues me!! Can't find it on any sites though.

The HKS Ti tapers down in diameter. Its more of a showy cat back. It's SS piping, Carbon Can and a Ti tip. The HKS Ti race downpipe back is 4inches in diameter. That is the among the best flowing.

Check out RS*R if you like the Carbon Ti
