just ordered the corksport turbo back exhaust for my t2!!!! i am so damn excited to get rid of my stock pos system and i cant wait to here my car. its gonna be insane. i know its gonna be loud and some guys say that loud is ricer but i like it and its a free flowing performance exhaust that adds lots of power. how is that rice?

 

i need exhaust bad too, my cat is breaking up and causing my boost to fluctuate and build slow, it's pissing me off. i just wish it wasn't christmas time, i have to buy everyone else presents but none for my car, ah well it gets enough presents throughout the year.

 

man rice is in your own head man. If you like it then good for you! :-)

 

Loud does not mean more power. Loud does mean "look at me"...

 

so what, i like it. you only live once and i am gonna do what makes me happy.

 

a friend of mine has it.... first time i heard it was when he pulled up to my house. i asked him "is that it?! i thought everyone said it was loud?!" he said he basically coated down my street and into my driveway. latter when he left i got to hear it at WOT.... yeah its loud...

 

did u like the sound?

 

hrm... I think the racing beat turbo back system is the way to go. I had it on my TII (when I had a TII...) and it was acceptable and produced a nice power increase(well, the extra boost did...). the system is now in the hands of mazdaspeed7.

 

Alot of people mistake loud for rice becuase there are two types of loud. The cheap and the expensive.

The expensive route is a new exhaust system setup that is non restricting, this is usually alot louder, but for a reason.
The cheap route is the 'ricer' that goes to partsource and buys the huge canistor muffler tip that makes his car sound like a bumble bee. thats ****** rice.

 

I've heard the cork sport peice of ****....i mean exhaust.


Its a worthless muffler I can tell you that.

A loud exhaust can very easily be qualified as 'rice' because loud exhausts like this one are created for the users out there that do this kind of stuff to get attention and be "hip" which is no different than slapping on a shopping cart wing or 40 pounds of stickers onto your geo or kia. There are more tame alternatives to the CS watermelon launcher exhaust like the RB setup.

 

I think people buy the CS setup because it is inexpensive and free flowing. You can't have everything, and some people would rather have their money producing power. It's just part of the deal!

but I'd rather have a used RB system than a new CS system.
