rx8 side exhaust?

Has anyone ever seen or done side exhaust on the 8? i feel like it would look good coming out of the side skirts?

It would also probably be very, VERY loud as there is little room for a muffler in front of the differential.

So are you talking about what the Viper has?

That might look sweet if done correctly

Try this: pop out your secondary o2 sensor and drive around for a day. It'll give you some idea of how loud it's going to be. Except it's going to be even louder.
