and jeff, if there is no rust on the chrome tips, shoot me a pm when the exhaust goes up for sale.
The owner is out of town but will be back soon. I'll take a look at the tips next time I'm near the system.

Do you have any dyno sheets to prove this? So far you haven't shown any proof whatsoever in any of your claims that every other exhaust system known to man is better than an RB system in terms of power gains. Show some proof and maybe someone will start listening

From what I know about MT v. RB MT is more free flowing and is usually claimed to give more hp but it can be argued either way because of concepts of physics that i don't completely understand. I'd love to see some hard numbers on them though... either way, I'm happy with my system.


As for gaskets, I'm getting an extra of the two bolt gaskets from RB that's for their cat-replacement pipe I believe. I have no idea where to get the gaskets for the three bolt connections though. Luckily mine came with gaskets... I actually have an extra of those if it would help you out, but you'd probably still be short if it's for a full system.

The three bolt gaskets look like the common collected header gaskets you can find at speed shops and probably most if not all auto parts stores. Just take the old one down and match it up.

It'll probably get sold in a day seeing how many people are interested in it. I just listed it for sale here. https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showthread.php?t=763129
