Anyone Running Different Exhaust?

Just curious if folks are still stock in this dept. I've been looking at various cat-backs, but once again, I'm holding off doing anything like that until I'm FI. The one I've leaned towards thus far is the dual muffler MS exhaust. I like the looks and reviews of the RB, but it's 20-30 lbs heavier than the stock exhaust.

with that extra weight your car would look pudgy... j/k

I assume you are asking the RX-8 folks?

Yup! As far as I know, I think most people are stock. As of now, I've pretty much settled on the MS dual can.

I have stock and have no plans to go FI anytime soon. I was looking in RX8club for a long time and finally came across an exhaust that sounded good but not too loud. Greek has a custom exhaust if you want to check it out just ask him.

I heard that the Greedy SP2 was a good NA exhaust but i am not sure about FI.

I am currently looking at a titanium one that is out of Greece called a Twister Exhaust. Not sure any details yet. I can let you know if you want.

I have a custom exhaust system done. It's almost the same muffler that is used generally in Camaro's. Single Muffler. I have cat back with a Magnaflow muffler. Job was done at Bud's Muffler. 10th and Santa Fe. You can hear it on are way to COS so you have a general idea what sound your going to get out of it.

Yup! I've gone through that thread, too. It's a few months off before I pull the trigger, so I definitely have time to do some research.

yeah i like the sound of that one. i wonder if you can get a clip of that take it to some shop and see if they can do a custom system that sounds like that but cheaper.

I am still talking to them about everything. I have them down to 2.5 weeks shipping and 800 euro. Not sure if it is worth it, but i guess we will see.

800 Euro that's $1,154. I'm not sure if it's worth it for that much. No matter what setup you go with the car will sound about the same and the claimed hp will not make a difference. Maybe that if you mention to them that one of your buddies is Greek they'll cut down on price more. But if they're like any Greeks they will not give you a lower price because we always get the price we want, almost. That seems like a nice system and intresting design concept.
