ok, ive got 3in piping turbo back and the noise is starting to get to me, besides the ricey droning noises, its just too loud, it sounds like a freight truck and draws too much attention. would either buying a resonated midpipe or a quieter catback work? or sould i get both....

id run a resonated midpipe first..

imho this is your biggest culprit..

then determine if this alone will suit your taste..

nopistons94 06-01-2004 09:42 PM

do you have a upgraded ECU first of all ?

FikseRxSeven 06-01-2004 09:44 PM

what kind of catback do you have?



i found it very tolerable to run a downpipe, midpipe and racing beat dual

RotaryRevolution 06-01-2004 10:11 PM

yes, i have a power fc with commander, the catback is hks hiper

How about a highflow cat? I hear they cut the noise down a little. You could also pair it up w/ the RB duels.

i run a greddy power extreme it is quiet when im crusin .. im mean when i get on it it sounds like a damned jet taking off but in no way is it ricey. i even have a midpipe and honestly its not loud ... isnt hks hyper one of the loudest other then the apex gt? you should check into the greddy. good power. good sound. NOT RICEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything is a compromise. Personal preference would be the HF cat, the cars w/ midpipes that I've heard all sounded strange but you may give up some performance. I'd go w/RB dual tip for looks, but IMHO, Greddy SP sounds the best.

how about a silencer in the tip? they help alot

Definitely get the resonated md-pipe. I've had a HF-Cat and 3" straight midpipe. The rx7store resonated mid-pipe is quiter than both the HF-Cat and 3" straight midpipe.
