Most people here would advise racing beat, apexi n1, corksport, or bonez i believe. I personally vote for racing beat. You can see their stuff at racingbeat.com under cat-back exhausts, hiperf exhausts, and exhaust components. The downpipe replaces your precats. The straight pipe or presilencer replaces your main cats. And the cat-back system includes the y-pipe and mufflers. If you want to pass emissions, you'll still need your main cat. Main cat can be replaced with a bonez high flow cat, though, for performance gains similar to that of a straight pipe, and still pass emissions.

Do not pick up watermelon launchers. Pick up one of the three that are good: RP(rx7.com), Borla(horsepowerfreaks.com), RB(racingbeat.com)

Do something tastefull so you don't sound like a moron going down the road.

If you have an N/A..... if would stay away from the N1-s... they are retarded loud, especially if you are not running a cat.... and i do mean RETARDED loud.. like you will be retarded after a 15 minute ride!!!

personally, I love racing beat stuff... can't beat the quality.. On an N/A they are a bit louder than a TII because the turbo knocks some of the sound down... but they give a real nice growl till you get on it at about 3k.. then they get pretty hot!! But juct cruising, they have a nice mellow tone (unless you are riding right next to another RX.... then it sounds like an airplane on acid in your ear with the reverberation of the two exhausts)
