Just a few more Racing Beat pics :)
Thought I might share.
My setup is Racing Beat catback w/Bonez race pipe on an 88 GTU.
Noticed an estimated 7-10 extra ponies, could be more...not sure. I don't even have my 5th & 6th ports functioning!!! In the process of fixing that.
The sound is DEEP and rich and not too loud at all. I love it and recommend RB to anyone considering it.
PS- Watch out for shipping!

Well, I had a tough time with one of my studs. Take your time. It was fun setting it up and I really enjoyed starting her up after completion. BIG diff from stock rusted heap of crap.
All in all It took me about 5 hours, not including lunch break
Make sure you torque the bolts and use all new gaskets.
I also recommend you going to the hardware store and using stainless hardware.
Couple bucks, but well worth it. Brass ones that come with it are a little scary.
Let me know how it goes for you. Goodluck man.
Adios

You guys see that rear lock.....
Some bastards broke into my car a few months ago. Stole $1200 worth of stereo equip. Don't care too much about the stuff, but damn....did you have to pry on the rear lock! They ended up smashing my driver side window too and bent the door frame back. I was able to bend it back and replace the glass for 80 bucks (Yard).
Now all I need is a little body work to fix that rear lock. Not sure how much that will cost me.

Looks awesome. Paint your taillights (restore the black part), its easy and makes the car look a lot cleaner.
edit: also, if you can find Mothers Back to Black, it does wonders for the black trim.

Sounds good, deep. Not too loud either.
I'll try and maybe get a sound clip this weekend.
Here are a few closer pics before I installed it.
Only thing I didn't like was the weak flange on the racepipe, see the diff in thickness compared to RB. Might have to keep an eye on that.
