Sounds good, defintley a little bit louder than the Legamax. Do you notice the difference in performance compared to your old HKS exhaust?

My midrange felt a little bit better but nothing really noticeable. But for turbocharged rx8's there will be a noticeable difference.

The vids came out pretty good!!!

In my opinion, this is how a modified rotary should sound... unless it's turbo of course! haha

so I installed my hks tonight...

two questions:

1. The stock gasket from the midpipe that meets up with the hks exhaust seems too big. Basically it feels like it's sealing, but the midpipe and exhaust don't meet up because the gasket is so big... did you have this issue?

2. The exhaust tip just after the muffler (not the Ti screw on part) has the two holes that screw into the Ti part on at a weird angle. It's closer to vertical than horizontal. Did yours come this way too? (I can post pics later on of this if needed)
