Mazdaspeed Sports Sound Exhaust
Hey, just have a quick couple of questions about this exhaust. I was looking at the racing beat dual tip, but the videos I was looking at made it sound too dirtbikeish.
I was wondering if this exhaust is something that sounds closer to the rx8 exhaust only better, but hopefully still around the same decibel range as the RB dual tip. Also what kind of hp gains did you see with this exhaust roughly?, and what kind of modifications will have to be made to fit it onto the car?
Pictures would be awesome too.
Thanks guys.

RB is the farthest thing away from sounding obnoxious that you can get on this car. Everything else sounds like a honda fart can, IMHO...to bratty-ratty. I like it comfortable though, and the RB is just that. Still, others prefer the sound of cans like the Apex'i N1, etc...

full 80mm (3,25") Not too loud and beatiful deep tone.
No Honda fart can - sound.
Maybe this exhaust is something for you?!

The St. May's doesn't really look like it fits all that well. The dual tips and mufflers, at least in picture from the FS ad, appear to hang well below the rear valence. And it's too wide for the cut-out. Unlike others, it also doesn't appear to be 100% stainless either. Might sound great, but how does it really fit?

there were a bunch of those st may on sale last year for $300 or so, which i still considered too much considering the build quality/specs.. i dont remember the details too well but the piping is a little narrow and is made of mild steel. fyi the same supply that was available last year is still listed at a popular online marketplace, but the price has been bumped up to $600.. not sure if the guy has even sold any.. even at the old $300 price, if i recall he had 10-15 units available.

Really?, all I have heard is nothing but the best of this exhaust, although the piping may look a little smaller then the racing beat, I am not too sure how much this would affect it, and the quality looks pretty good. I think I was sold on the sound of it though:

imo, the only drawback is the weight. it's definately not as heavy as stock, but i switched to the st. may's from the original greddy ti. talk about a weight differance.
...and as far as quality goes, this thing is imaculate. good luck finding one because i'm keeping mine

yeah I am not too concerned about weight, just wondering. I would rather have an exhaust that looks/sounds and performs good thats a bit heavier then a honda fart cannon ( I love making fun of vtec) thats a bit lighter.
Just will have to stay with a half tank of gas to save on weight, hahaha
