View Full Version : Exhaust Help
8 is enough 08-29-2005, 10:18 PM So i got an old pay check from a company i no longer work for in the mail today. The paid me for the time they walked me when i gave them 2 weeks. The check is valid so that means I have extra cash.
I am going to buy exhaust in the next couple of weeks as i finalize my choices. It is down to Racing Beat, Greddy, or HKS but could expand or shrink.
Got any advice. All should be a normal install nothing special about them, right?
Greddy made the list because of Dazy.
Im_DANomite 08-29-2005, 10:20 PM i get my RB in a couple days...PM me and i'll give you a heads up :D
dazygirl415 08-29-2005, 10:24 PM :D Gotta love the powers of the Greddy. :D
I don't know of any other exhausts in the area but Greddy, but there should be PLENTY to hear at the BBQ if you are willing to wait that long.
8 is enough 08-29-2005, 10:39 PM yeah i know is rotoraygod coming up
Tkat2k 08-30-2005, 09:16 AM I got the B&B on mine and I love it...powerful sound under acceleration, but quiets down on the highway.
BigOLundh 08-30-2005, 12:07 PM didn't you hear mine at bjs? It's greddy as well.

dazygirl415 08-30-2005, 12:11 PM He's only heard yours once - not enough for a lasting impression. :D
8 is enough 08-30-2005, 06:08 PM Oh it was lasting alright it was turbod.
Plus i head Dazy's greddy with the mid pipe. I have heard the RB as well.
jenkins-crew 08-30-2005, 06:09 PM Go with Greddy, I think Martin can get a real good price for you.
BLUE_SIX 08-30-2005, 08:44 PM Go with Greddy, I think Martin can get a real good price for you.
Both Slim and I have the new GREDDY. Although I haven't heard it yet, it looks nice. I'll let u know how much I like it soon.
BigOLundh 08-30-2005, 11:27 PM mine is actually Greddy with RP's SuperDuperCat (i just added the "duper" part because im bored)...
But anyways, i would suggest waiting for the BBQ so you can hear every type. I personally would like to hear the Racing Beat one myself.
8 is enough 08-31-2005, 07:54 PM Yeah but i want an exhuast to show at the BBQ. I leaning hard towards the HKS
Mr. Ed's rx-8 08-31-2005, 08:20 PM the hks is over priced. the greddy you can't go wrong with. and the racing beat has never let anyone down. you're not really gonna get much HP wise from any of them. i would go with the cheapest exhuast and get yourself a midpipe with the money you save. you can pick up a mid pipe anywhere from $100(used) to about $300.
i used to have the greddy catback with the B&B straight pipe. i liked the sound of it but i also welded in a silencer to get rid of the raspy-ness. i could also should huge balls of fire out my ass end, with that midpipe!!! everyone seemed to like it and i could feel a small gain with that combo. as for the sound...ask the other DFW peeps that heard it. not sure if they liked it or not.
thats my input......
Im_DANomite 08-31-2005, 08:29 PM just got my RB exhaust put on today...couldn't have made a better choice. i was gonna go with GReddy at first. but when i got a better look at it in person, the tips weren't appealing to me.
8 is enough 08-31-2005, 09:04 PM the greddy tips bug me because they are oval and they have a lip at the end. I love racing beat stuff, i have their intake, and CAI. but was trying to branch out.

8 is enough 08-31-2005, 09:26 PM yeah i saw that. I like Racing beat's stuff. Your tips looks great. Love they way you jimmied the box into the car.
XDEEDUBBX 09-06-2005, 03:15 PM i've got the hks legamax installed and love it. Yes it is one of the more expensive kits out there but the quality of the kit is way up there. (Not saying others exhausts have poor quality).Here are some vids of it:
