This gets covered a lot, but who knows. There is a greater potential if you run a header and no cats, but it prolly depends a lot on the car too. Cats are easy enough to replace, so do whatever.

So you are saying a completely stock dual exhaust, but with the cats removed?
You SHOULD get some flames, but nothing spectacular by any means. Replace the whole system.. header... piping (single) and 1 muffler and no one will stand near the back of your car ever again

THE BEST WAY TO GET FLAMES IS TO ASK ABOUT A V8 CONVERSION.

why don't you try it and find out? not to be a dick, but people ask about this all the time and it gets annoying as hell. if you look, the information will come.

well, actually i am going to be trying it out! i was just simply asking people before hand! and why would it matter if i asked? this is a forum about RX7's and you are suppose to discuss things about cars and ****. And besides the fact that who cares if it is "asked all the time." Look how many people responded already! they sure dont seem to care, only you! I dont mean to be a ***** about it but why not have some common courtesy and help people out even if people have asked the same question before. Plus, some people dont have money such as you possibly to take the time or waste the money and see if single or dual with or with out cats would be better. when you think about it, you are wasting someones time, using pipe (which costs money), using muffs(which also costs money if you dont know what you want. ie. dual or single)

Thanks to all the people that replied!


One more question, would it be louder than hell if i took the cats out? lol. And would it be even louder if i went with single?

That's two questions but they will only require one answer: YES!!!

No really though, with just the cats removed, it will be much louder, but not unbearable or anything. Single exhaust with no cats using an aftermarket muffler = buy earplugs and have a good eye for cops!

HA! me, have money? i'm a full time student between jobs, yeah right i have tons of money. i appologize for giving you the cold shoulder, let's start over. welcome to the boards, there are many helpful items on this board, and many helpful people, BUT, there is also a very helpful archive section which can answer many of your questions.
i just see it as laziness i guess when someone up and starts a thread without even looking around. i don't see it as wasting someone's time, because they are performing a service from which they gain a profit. it is what they do (exhaust shiat and whatnot), and it would be more detrimental to them not to bring your business.
