I have it and love it as well. Much better, and more mellow of a sound then the others that I have heard. I'm very impressed with the craftmanship put into it as well. I say go for it!

I just cant decide between the RB dual tip or the M2 dual tip!!! Does anyone know if the tips on these exhausts are the same size??? And if owners of these exhaust could post some good pics of them I would greatly appreciate it...

Goober, PM 1FuknTiteFD (that's close), he has compared the two.

From my understanding, the M2 has similar size tips and is a hair more aggressive sounding but still relatively quiet and mellow. I have heard stories of so-so build quality and fitment. FWIW, my RB has very good build quality and looks and sounds great. It also fit perfectly. Of course, if you order either of them, be prepared to wait several weeks...

yes, i have also heard there's a slight fitment problem with the m2, that it rubs again the bumper or something and melts it (?) - don't remember exactly.

I have the RB dual tip on my car right now and absolutely love it. The build quality is excellent, the fit is perfect, and I love the sound -- it's definitely louder than stock, but not super loud. I also love the way it looks on the car, it's kinda like stock but all pretty and shiny -- much more subtle than a canister-style tip. You will have to wait a little while to get your hands on one, but it's definitely worth it IMO.

I second that notion. I had it put on a month ago and love it. Mellow and quiet under normal throttle and a nice snarl under full throttle.

Fit/finish is excellent and looks like stock (which is very important to me)

The large canisters look too ghetto ricer (excuse the expression)

I have the m2 and rb and like them both. I think the build quality is better on the m2 and I like the fact that its a one piece catback. The rb is quieter and has a more refined or stock look about it. I would also bet the m2 is heavier I think I weighed mine in at 27lbs. Speaking of weight though the PFS catback which is also nice but louder is 16lbs and will last forever not as attractive as either the m2 or rb though. I think I have just convinced myself that the rb is the best all around exhaust. It looks good, sounds good, and won't empty your wallet.
