BC Bonez RMP vs RX7Store RMP

Looking to get a resonated midpipe, wanna see what people think of these two, and if people who've owned both can give me a direct comparison to which is quieter, better quality etc. Just wanna make an educated purchase...

Thanks!

No experience with the bonez midpipe but the rx7store one uses an oval-shaped large magnaflow resonator which significantly calms down the tone and vibration. Just based on the looks, the bonez midpipe would seem like a more aggressive setup though.

No experience with the Bonez, but the RX-7 Store MP has a nice deep tone to it. If you want to quiet your exhaust that would be the way to go.

I have used both. the Magnaflow midpipe is lighter and it's about the same in terms of quieting down the exhaust.

I like the magnaflow midpipe.

David,

Or you could just do what I did: Went to my local muffler shop that sells magnaflow resonators and had them install it for me. They welded the correct piping to the resonator along with the flanges that attach to the DP and catback (essentially the piece you are contemplating on purchasing) . Total price was ~$200 USD if I remember correctly.

The best was that I didn't need to lift a finger.

I would if the only muffler shop in local 100 mile radius wasn't completely run by inbred idiots lol. Maybe i'll get one of my welder friends to help me out, good idea.
