Exhaust
Alright I know there are a lot of threads out there on exhaust but I want opinions.
My friend also has an Rx-8 and he the HKS hi power exhaust w/ the k&N typhoon intake.
Riding with him most of the time the exhast was almost annoying, I didnt like the pitch it had, Ive looked on Youtube a bunch and sometime you cant compare exhausts because the video and sound quality.
I really want something thats a little more deeper.
What would u guys suggest?
I think its between the Borla, Magnaflows of flowmasters.

You could always put a silencer to lower the sound down.

The sound is more of a personal preference. See if people can send you a wavs of their exhausts on here.
I personally like racing beat as great tone when revving however not intrusive when cruising.
It was made to complement rotary noise not overpower it!

+1 on that. While cruising you can barely hear it, but as soon as you press the gas, it just gets deep and sounds great

The perfect combo:
Racing Beat's cat-back and their D/R mid pipe
Oh. and stay away from the Typhoon, it's total ****

RB + their filter and air duct gave a pretty good overall sound too, just to mention it
