I purchased a Rotary powered Rotus 7 . The exhaust system had been redone several time by prior owners to quiet it down for road use but the mufflers would burn out quickly. Magnaflow even burned with the inherant rotary heat. I purchased a Mazda Beat system with a pre-silencer and muffler and tip to incorporate into the new system. Because the exhaust has to exit out the side and end in front of the rear fender, I added a loop to get the length needed and then welded it up. The results are simply amazing! It has made it completely legal and even at 7,000 rpm it is not too loud. If it does not burn out

which I am told it won't, I am set! Their quality is exellant!

Very nice! Your passengers need a warning label for exiting the vehicle, haha.

That could be, but after driving it several miles the outside surface of both canisters were cold. I have a lotus 7 shroud that I plan to alter and put on if

heat is an issue.I just don't want to add more weight if it is not necessary.

Just to clarify: Are we talking about "Racing Beat"? They've been around since the rotary engine came to the U.S. back in the early 70's.
