Nice install though

Ty, my rp supercat had the bolts...eh oh well.
G3tR3DDY2GR3DDY 03-24-2009, 11:34 PM eh thats RP though.. more of a rotary specific for our car kinda thing.
Something like a hymee system or RP or whatever would probably have the bolts (mazsport maybe)
but anything like borla, racing beat, exoticspeed, agency power, people who make things for all kinds of cars usually dont.
volcomx31 03-24-2009, 11:36 PM nice
L337fpc 03-24-2009, 11:37 PM well nonetheless, im 100% satisfied with my purchase and i highly recommend ExoticSpeed's products.
luv4eternity 03-25-2009, 01:17 AM how loud is it ? i cant tell by the video ~.^
Grats!
It would be nice if You could take some videos from outside.
By the way what is the setup? Only the midpipe and stock cat back? It seems that the CEL does not go on...
No way , that cant be stock cat back right? lol >_>. What exhaust is it anyways? Thanks for the videos :). But some outside videos would be nice to hear how it sounds from outside? Thats what matters to me....

I have MazdaManiac's maps. No CEL for me!

After 4k it gets much louder then the Greddy SP2 is normally.

Greddy SP2. Yea i'll take some outside videos today. It was like 10pm when i got the race pipe installed.
I had to cut a nut that had stripped off, which was a PIA.
Race Roots 03-25-2009, 08:26 AM Nice!
Glad you are happy with the Mid-pipe :)
HockeyRX-8 03-25-2009, 08:31 AM Dude...were you powershifting in the third vid? :lol:
Sounds nice man!
L337fpc 03-25-2009, 09:27 AM Dude...were you powershifting in the third vid? :lol:
Sounds nice man!
Lololol, no I was just revving, and then i was like f##k it, I'll do a 3rd gear pull. Then i was looking at the camera, rather then the tac and didn't let off on the gas quick enough.
Recording and driving don't play nice!
lepichichi 03-25-2009, 09:51 AM nice set up, it sounds great and no cel???
dozer 03-25-2009, 09:55 AM ^look up at post #10...:banghead:
L337fpc 03-25-2009, 09:59 AM nice set up, it sounds great and no cel???
Thx man. I've got MM's Maps, no CEL for me!

:lol:
fisherdn 03-25-2009, 10:06 AM How does the sound of this compare to the SP2 with the RP supercat?
L337fpc 03-25-2009, 10:18 AM How does the sound of this compare to the SP2 with the RP supercat?
You mean the differences between the RP SuperCat and the ExoticSpeed Race Pipe, right?
If so, first things first, I don't get that annoying rattle from the heatsheild of the SuperCat. The tone has changed from the SuperCat to the ExoticSpeed. Now past 4k, its a clear 'BRAP' noise :lol:.
The tone of the Sp2 is still intact, but its ranges have been extended both high and low.
I will try and take more vids after work.
lepichichi 03-25-2009, 10:34 AM Thx man. I've got MM's Maps, no CEL for me!
:lol:
nice i need more info on MM's Maps! how does it works??
imput1234 03-25-2009, 10:41 AM In the video it doesnt seem raspy at all. Is it?
L337fpc 03-25-2009, 10:41 AM nice i need more info on MM's Maps! how does it works??
How it works: MazdaManiac Accessport Tuning (http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=165488)
In the video it doesnt seem raspy at all. Is it?
Not at all, which makes me very happy.
lepichichi 03-25-2009, 10:43 AM ^^ thanks, it sounds great btw!
Razor Rolla 03-25-2009, 10:44 AM OH MAN this gets me sooo excited. My exoticspeed r1-t and racepipe come in tomorrow :ylsuper:
L337fpc 03-25-2009, 10:46 AM OH MAN this gets me sooo excited. My exoticspeed r1-t and racepipe come in tomorrow :ylsuper:
Very nice man. Make sure you have everything ready. A little WD-40 makes any exhaust install x100 easier.
L337fpc 03-25-2009, 03:26 PM Updated OP with a new Vid.
szym0n 03-25-2009, 03:41 PM sounds nice
Leandrys 03-25-2009, 11:34 PM Does anybody knows if the gasket's kit that sells brice of Fluidmotorsports will fit on this Midpipe ?
Question can look stupid, i know, just wanna be sure, i don't see why this wouldn't but i'm close to command this piece and as i live far away from US, i wouldn't have any bad surprise. ;)
Really nice part TBH, good buy. ^^
Is it a 3" diameter part ?
Nice , thanks for the videos man :).
nvrfalter 03-26-2009, 02:27 AM sounds good dude

I actually just ordered some of those gaskets. But yea they will work. As with any OEM fitting midpipe. Plus those gaskets are under a warranty with Fluid for a year.
Yes it is a 3in pipe. And omg it is awesome.
Nice , thanks for the videos man :).
Np, i pissed my neighbors off with the last vid. It was completely silent in my neighborhood when i started reving away.
sounds good dude
ty, ty.
