BEST midpipe

I've pretty much heard, ss is the only way to go... but whats the big difference? what kinda coatings create different sounds and how many possible different resonances could they produce? im gonna buy one soon, so if you guys got any info on what to buy, lemme know, im all ears. and if any of you guys have one for sale and can back it up with sufficient info and possible pictures to prove its not in **** condition, im all for it. thanks

I have not seen a difference in any MP whether SS or mild steel, coated or uncoated.

Resonated MP will limit the droning but is still loud with a aftermarket exhaust.

I have used both a SS and mildsteel midpipe. Currently using a Mildsteel and cant tell the difference in sound.
My personal opinion is dont waste the money on a SS. Mildsteel is usually thicker and comes with a high temp paint.
I carry a few different ones at the RX-7 Store and sell alot of the Mindtrain Mildsteel midpipe.

Alot of people go with the Mindtrain and like it. Quality is an issue because some may not be the exact length, too long too short, and causing stress on the dp and cb. Go with something well known.
