The sound quality is horrible, but you can get an example here:

and here is an external sound shot of the car on the dyno:

red, i got the chills just listening and watching the tach! youve inspired me to keep going with my conversion. i was planning on using the RB duals, with a HF metalic substrate cat, and just the twins for now... and while it wont be 4" all the way back like yours, im hoping it will still sound rather mean. -heath

It does not fit the car and looks like a cheap generic muffler welded to a pipe that does not fit the car. Worse yet the car is stock, it would be better if you riced it out with some flat black steel front wheels.

here is my Greddy EVO. Is not too loud but it used to drone while crusing. I still got the stock mid pipe but not for long. I also have a HKS dp and running non-seq. Not the best picture either. Nice RHD FD. I always liked the HKS Hi Power series specially the Carbon Ti. I will post another one to see how it sounds with a RX-7 Store resonated MP.

Damn it, Red-Rx7. Now I'm going to have to go with those "mufflers", even though you can barely call them that. But I don't need 4'', so the 3.5'' will suffice. Thanks for the info.

PFS exaust: nice sound loud drone on highway, even with the windows up, A/C on, with cruise control. It always amazes me when all of these things work so well after 12 years, cold a/c!

I'll get right on that. I'm painting my rims pink tomarrow.

Looks great to me, sounds great, and looks exactly like any other catback out there that uses a large muffler.


But whatever.

We'll that's an opinion that is full of BS. It's no difference than so many others of similar shape and size. I tell you what is stupid, paying $500 for something that isn't a real muffler and gets just as sooty! And rice is something you eat, not a preference of style modifications.

I think the perfect exhaust, since Borla doesn't make a twin tip Stinger cat-back for the FD, is an RB twin tip with twin Borla Stinger tips.

I have the RB dual tip, and I think it sounds really nice. I would have liked to get it without the Racing Beat etching, as I really do not need any more attention.
I gues you guys like your FD's to sound like a civic or a corola.
I love the sound of my N1 Dual, but hey, everyone has a diferent taste...
