RP exhaust

Does anyone have the RP 50mm Performance Cat-Back Exhaust? I think its only available from rx7.com. Its not too expensive for a catback and I was wondering how good it is, any noticeable power increase?

I have it

it sounds great, and looks pretty stock.

not sure about performance though, because I added it with the bonez superflow cat system. I definetly felt an increase in power with that.

quality seems pretty good.

Is it a nice deep sound or more of a high sound? And is it loud or closer to stock loudness?Do you have any sound clips of it or could you make one? Thanks

its a nice deep sound. I was always worried that it was making a buzzy annoying sound, but my friends kept telling me it had a really great low sound. every time I'd pull up when I first got it they'd say, " dude, your car sounds soo cool". I'm really satisfied with it.
but I don't have a sound clip, sorry.

a friend of mine also has it with the RB header and presilencer, and it sound a lot like the rx7 in initial D, minus the turbo sound, which is quite different than how mine sounds.

I'll hopefully get my new car running tomorrow, and a friend just got a DV camera, so maybe I'll make a video.
(maybe).

by the way, its pretty loud!!!

Its not badged, so I don't think so. plus, isn't the dynomax system silver? the RP one is black.(except the tips)

Alright man thanks a lot. I think once I get my 7 running I'll get the RP exhaust. Good price for a catback.
