Rotary have overlap, this cannot be eliminated from the design (of the FC 13B). Backpressure will allow exhaust gases to mix with the intake charge.

Full racing beat exhaust is not loud and ricey. I bet it will sound nasty with the stock catback.

no way, it makes so much sense now, that's why all the new cars have cats and its a federal mandated law because without torque, we would only have horsepower and that could drive everyone in ranches out of their homes because horses would be replaced by cars and Osama will be like LoL you suXOOR I now Jack oil to $150 a barrel and we lose the war and I will rise up on power by creating catless exhaust which makes me rich and famous and both Hilary Duff and Emma Watson will marry me and we have a threesome every night

I have experimented with a few different exhaust setups and personally I am not a big fan of the RB presilencer. Run a Borla XR-1 in place of it and get rid of the stock cat back.

Yes, but it will choke a rotary.
That said, getting rid of the stock cats will free up a decent amount of HP. And there a plenty of exhausts that don't sound "ricey"
