Resonated MP vs Straight Thru MP
Guys...
I'm looking at the rx7store.net site...
Im replacing my catylac converter now that I have a pfc. Anyways, does a resonated midpipe mage a significant difference between the regular just straight through midpipe???
Im debating wether or not the resonated one is worth the extra 100 dollars. Or if I should just save the 100 bucks and live w/ a little bit louder exaust.
But if it does make a pretty noticeable difference in regards to noise levels, I'd pay the extra money just so I dont get a headache on the long drives.
Thanks,
Greg

I like my Pettit resonated mp. I think it helps with droning.
As for the power I dont think it hurt much as I'm making over 400rw with that and the Pettit dual tip quite cat back exhaust

I have the RB Duals and a resonated MP...I like it, I like it a lot At idle and around town driving I didn't notice a difference over the stock cat with the RB Duals. The only time I really notice a difference in sound is when the secondar turbo kicks in. Sweet *** sweet!

The one that the RX 7 store sells is a muffled type, with stainless steel packing.

I had the midpipe and now I have a resonated midpipe. The resonated was a waste of money and I didn't notice any change in noise. I wish I never wasted my money. My current setup is huge street ported motor, downpipe, resonated midpipe, Apexi GT Spec exhaust. Oh, I purchased the Pettit's resonated midpipe.

I have straight through exhaust and its not bad. I just get gas smell into the cabin sometimes - usually when backing out of the parking lot - I just switch to the internal air circulation when in reverse and problem is solved.
I like the sound, but my rear Remus muffler is hollow and I'll get an APEXi N1 muffler replica next year.

loud wouldnt bother me... but im thinking in regards to if my g/f will even want to set foot in the car with me if we ever drive anywhere. Last thing I need is to give my g/f a headache or get her high from fumigation, lol. Only kidding. I ended up ordering the resonated mid pip from rx7store.net, any idea how long these guys generally take to ship an item???
I'm not in a rush, but I dont feel like waiting 3 weeks either.
Thanks,
Greg

I ordered mine from them last Friday. Jason mentioned that he had them in stock, and would ship right away, so my guess would be that you would have yours very soon. (no drop shipment)
