Greetings! Is anyone able to identify the cat back below? It dates back to the 90's. At first I thought it was an early RB but after looking at some pictures I'm not so sure. I can't find any markings on it and it does sound pretty stock (maybe a tad louder).
Don't know, but judging by the way they do the pipe-inside-a-pipe style tips, it resembles the Borla cat-back system I have on my FC. If Borla made a cat-back system for the FD and made of all stainless steel, that would be my 1st guess.
It's SUPER quiet, like near-stock exhaust levels of quiet. But it's well made. For whatever reason it doesn't look like it's fitting well and it's up against the bumper, may need to be adjusted a bit.

Thanks for the confirmation Dale.
I would not have thought it was an HKS system as it has a different look from the one I bought for my FC back in 93. It had different style tips that were not beveled at the end so I guess HKS did not standardize the look across products. This exhaust was installed when the FD was only a couple of years old and it does sound pretty much stock. Going to have to clean it up at some point and check the installation as you pointed out. It needs to be centered better

HKS had several different cat backs and full exhausts, and then had a bunch of different tip styles. if i get off my butt i'll post a pic from the catalog

I wish I had kept all my catalogs/magazines from the 90's. The Mazdatrix one was great. I only kept a few magazines from when they introduced the FD.
