hmmm I wonder would I have good sound with a stock cat. Or should I go highflow hmm.... nw 8's Please send ur opnions thank you

 

high flow=more performance for your turbo.

 

^^^^What he said^^^^

 

Um, turbo? Do you have after market turbo on your 8?
Either way, more free flow=more performance.
However, with renesis, I've been noticing that "Buzzsaw" exhaust sound, especially from more free flowing exhausts...it's just the nature of the engine, I assume. I had sp2's and it was surprisingly deep, so you'll really like the sound.

You can also always go test pipe... One of the easiest way to gain power for the 8
Good luck

 

thank you every one for helping me! This is my very first rotary I love it!!!

 

I recently installed a test pipe from the rx8store.net, I have the greddy kit, no cat, no resonator and no mufflers. But it is not a loud as you might think, but still too loud for the streets.

 

Not tru, in some cases you can lose power. It has to be a perfect balance, of size of intake, mod, supercharger or turbo, exhust, etc, etc, etc....
Good luck!!!

 

what he said.....^^ i believe called back pressure.......

 

yeah thats what I thought and my poeple have been telling me "back pressure is nothing its a myth with the 8 I thought so. Jeez ppl!! lol!!!!

 

read, cry, then read again... now feel better about your exhaust choices:

You don't need to worry about back pressure on a rotary. With a rotary more free flowing the better, period. Problem is it just gets really really loud.

 

Ive got a race pipe if you want to borrow it.

 

It's not about back-pressure. It's about harmonic tuning, and yes, rotaries do respond to harmonic tuning. Proper tuning will actually allow the exhaust to flow MORE than dumping straight off the manifold. However, the real point from that article is that a lot of math is required to figure out the best solution for your individual application.
