Dual Tip Exhaust // Racing Beat or M2?

Hey all,

I'm considering changing out my current single tip exhaust (Blitz NurSpec) to a dual tip sometime spring of next year (long time I know). I'm looking into either a Racing Beat or M2. Want to hear your thoughts on differences, sound level, etc since these are only two companies I know of that make dual tips.

M2:

M2 has been out of business for over a year.

The Racing Beat exhaust has extremely good build quality and sounds nice. Not excessively loud and no droning. Highly recommended.

I've heard lots of good testimonials about the RB dual tips...just was interested in the M2 as well but they're out of business.

I don't think my neighbors are all that happy with the RB when I start the engine at 7am every morning....but I like it.

I have a Blitz Nurspec and I think it's mild-moderately loud...good thing most of my neighbors leave an hour before I do.

I have a great link here posted by another FD user here on the forum (thanks BTW) that showcases sound clips of various exhausts..but all single tip. Anyone, got link or sound clip of their Racing Beac Dual Tips? Search results only came up for ones for the FC.

M2 is out of business, but I understand that these guys were their supplier:

They are willing to ship to the U.S.

Try the dual tip exhausts here

www.smb.net.au

I have mine on...3.5" dump --> 4" metal substrate cat --> 3.5" rear with twins.

At WOT it screams...at highway speeds it is quiet (I can not hear it over the tyre noise unless I open a window!) absolutely no droning. at Idle it is very deep and quietish
Keeping it below 4500rpm cops won't be bothered...above that..well.....

I would guess around 85db below 4500...and at WOT 7000rpm Around 100db.
My car is pushing 14+psi on the factory twins with the above sound levels..

When I get a chance I will make some recordings.

I have a m2 dp, m2 mid, and rb dual, no drone. All little louder than avg. b/c of the straight mid pipe, and of course the usual strong exhaust smell but I think its perfect, the exhaust has a nice low grumble before 4500 that is very tolerable no droning at all but when that 2nd turbo kicks in it screams
