I think I want to stick with dualies. Which one is the best?

 

IMO racing beat...what im running and i love it. quiet yet has the tone like no other...

 

yeah the racing beat is a very nice catback..

Max

 

Apexi N1 Duals for sure!

 

would sound better if you had more than 5 bolts in your turbos?

 

Racing Beat dual tip. Great fitment and quiet!

 

Looks: Racing Beat
Sound: M2

 

I like my Pettit dual tip cb.

 

Apexi duals i read sound like crap there is a sound clip somewhere here on the forums

 

I dont know how the N1 sounds turbo'd but my friends N1 sounds like pure ***

 

In about two-three weeks time, I should have video up of my 3.5" www.smb.net.au exhaust...

Just have to get the power fc installed & tuned when i install the system...

 

I think for fit, form, and function you can't beat the Racing Beat dual tip. I did a lot of research and decided that for my application it was best. This in no way impugns the other systems that are available, I am sure there are pros and cons to each. One thing that DOES seem to be a certainty is that the RB has the best "fit" of all of them, with none of the problems like melting the rear valance, etc, that some others do.

 

No such thing as "best". There are ones that people "prefer", but there is no "best".

 

I would say the RB duals as well for reasons others have already said.

 

I'm partial to my M2 dual. It's my favorite exhaust that I have heard on an FD. They are getting hard to find, though.

 

I had an M2 but traded it to a local forum member for her RB duals. If I had to do it over again, I wouldn't! The RB *is* a nicer looking, better built unit, but doesn't sound nowhere near as nice! The M2 exhausts are sourced from Australia and *still* made by Hi-Tech, BTW, so they can be had. Only problem is getting them imported, and at a fair price. When M2 was still around, they sold these exhausts for $499, however, direct from HT is something like $800.

 

i love my RB duals. The sounds is very crisp and quite. But when you romped the throttle it lets everyone know there is still a turboed rotary under the hood.

 

I love my RB duallies also. a nice subtle purrr when its idling or just running but when i punch it, there's a bit of a throaty growl followed by a scream mmm mmm good.

 

Just the info I was looking for http://www.hitechmufflers.com.au/mazda.html

 

I ordered the RB's last night, thanks for all the input!
The reman engine is going back together smoothly and I redid the vac hoses. Just waiting on a new ACT clutch before the engine goes back in. I just hope the m/f starts and runs when it's all back together!
