So I am planning on buying a racing beat exhaust system tonight from a friend of friend of a friend...or something like that. Anyways, I have never seen this exhaust system and racing beat themselves are closed today. So my question is: Are there any identifying marks that would let me know this is the real thing??? If I could get a fast response from someone, that would be great.

If it's the full system, the Y pipe is very short after the silencer. The mufflers have long pipes attached to run to the small Y pipe. Take a look at their site, I'm certain it has a picture.

It should say Racing Beat on the sides of the tips. Check out RB's website for some more pics of the whole system.

The left muffler should hang a little lower than the right muffler.

FYI-All the mufflers from RB have Racing Beat on the Tips, N/A and Turbo. As I said before the mufflers from the Turbo back system have a long pipe attached, and the regular RB mufflers differ between the Tirbo and N/A versions. The turbo versions have the tipe welded to the outside of the flange, larger ID, while the N/A mufflers have the pipe inside the flange.

The y-pipe also has "RB" cut into the piece that "holds" the y in place (the piece of metal that runs between the y's) Unless it's the older version, it will be completely stainless steel. They will also have OEM style hangers, no jerry rigged hangers of any kind. All in all, very easy to install.

So as I said, I went that night to get the exhaust system and while it was a racing beat system, at least the muffler tips said so, it was not for a turbo setup from what I saw. The muffler pipe leading to the y-pipe was only about 7-8 inches. The y-pipe was huge, at lest 3 1/2 - 4 ft. And while I did not measure, the piping seemed a bit small for a turbo application. I would like to post a link to this fraudulent ad on craigslist.com so nobody esle has to waste a drive to this location. If you are looking for a n/a system, this will be fine. Oh yeah, nor is it complete like the ad claims. It is missing the presilencer, everything I am saying can be confirmed with one phone call or email to the seller. Thanks everyone for your help, had it not been for you, I would have maybe bought it. The size of the piping would have made me question the system even it everyone thing else played out good.

if the diameter for the outlets on the ypipe are 2.0 inches, then its the N.A system. If its more then 2 inches its for the turbo.

Also the if the Ypipe is that long, then its a regular catback and not a REV II syste, but $450 is a pretty good deal even for just a n/a system, though if you are turbo, I can understand being frustrated.

Turbo system has a 3 inch inlet at the y and a 2.5 for each muffler.
