How is the flow on the stock system?
I have the N-1 Duals, considering selling it and go back to stock.
Does the stock one have restricted flow?

I have stock intake with k&n, downpipe and high flow cat. Stock ECU.

Damn.. that was a huge improvement! Too bad it is still like trying to breathe through a straw for your poor little motor.

Yea, when I went to a meet, and look at some stock exhaust.
<b>It looks different, because of the tip. And the tone sounds different too.<b> That is what throw me off.

<b>Can anyone recognize it?<b> The previous owner said he change the exhaust from some company in Florida.
I check all exhaust photos, nothing looks similar.

I got sick of the N-1 Dual loudness, still like the look though.

Florida...most likely Pettit Racing
They resell RB duals...part no EX-RB-16427
RB duals was designed after the RSR....RB decided to remanufacture them when RSR was no longer sold in the US...
RSR had no stamping on them...possibly no stamping on the earlier RBs as well...

Definitely not stock. Definitely looks like the RSR (old style RB). Could be the SR dual tip, then painted? I'm positive its not stock though.

1993 Base Model.
It has downpipe, and high flow cat. So I do not think the previous owner did not change the cat-back.
I am thinking of going back to it. I tried to sell this cat-back 6 months ago, and people only offers $150.
Its good to know that its not stock. Because I do not want to suffer because of the reduced flow. Maybe less than N1-duals, but better than stock huh?

What did you polish the tips with? Looks exactly like my exhaust which is also unkown and aftermarket, and sounds cool, not too noisy.

Did not really polish it.
I use the liquid wrench. Just after taking the cat-back out.
I spray on it then wipe it. It take out all the dirts covering the tips, also took out the paint that covers the canister, not all of it, but some. As you can see in the pictures.

Its good to know that its aftermarket.
At one point the spark plug wires plugged wrongly, thus I have 20 degree retard. It sounds like RX-7 drowned in water...
