i was a little scared about purchasing something i never heard about. i thought it would come back looking like it was spot welded by a junior high shop class.

looks nice
Is that a silencer installed?
Hmm, looks like A Greddy PE II. Maybe they buy it from them at a discount and just rebadge it so they can sell it for less.

the word "****" describes how those exhaust systems sound on an RX-7, in my opinion and in many other's opinion also.
but it looks nice and of high quality!

The only thing that I don't like about the canister style is that they don't sit perpendicular to the car. They shoot out at an angle. To me they look like they were not ment to mount on our cars.
As far as these mufflers sounding like ****. I agree to a point. They sound like crap with you foot off the accelerator, but when you stomp on it. Man they sound like a harrier jet.

HOW IT SOUNDS:
i admit i wasnt to fond of the canister style exhausts. it really has a nice BASS tone to it.. its really deep running around. Probably because i only have a DP and NOT a MP. the sound is managebable. I HATE fart sounds but to my surprise this exhaust dosent produce it. maybe when i get my MP i'll complain. on the freeway you can barely hear it. stereo isnt much louder running around.
i love the overall sound quality.
it is A LOT louder than a muffler style exhaust. my friend's greddy SP sounds stock next to this thing.
i personally like it. i CAN return it. but i'm NOT.. im pretty happy camper.
the silencer chokes it down to a 2" opening but i dont think i'm going to use it.
oh yeah.. performance wise.. it pulls like crazy now.

It's nice to see that RP has a nice fitting canister style. I was wrong about this one. It really doesn't anlge out at all. I guess I don't like the angled ones so much because every civic and it's cousin has one crammed under their miss-aligned plastic bumbers.
