I used to have the RB dual tip, but sold it for 2 reasons:

1. Too quiet, I like a more notable sound

2. Not as free flowing as an M2 or www.powertone.com tips

I have the racing beat duel tip. I can say that the car has a nice sound.

the RB is a straight through muffler, no baffles etc, this means it's not restrictive on flow (and you can blow flames). Sure it's not as flowy as the N1, but i doubt you'll notice a difference.

I have the all stainless and I think it is a little too loud with a midpipe.

I've seen the claims of 30% more flow through the M2 muffler compared to the RB but this from M2's site.

Has anyone seen back to back dyno tests or flow bench tests? I doubt it is enough difference for the butt dyno to detect.
