Turboxs Exhaust/Racepipe

hey guys im not too sure if this is being posted in the right spot since im kinda new to the site and its 4am, so id ont really feel like looking through the forums.

ANYWAY, onto my question.
So i've been looking into exhaust systems for my Daily Drive 04 rx8 and i'm pretty set on the turboxs one. now, i was wondering if there was anybody that could fill me in on how loud the racepipe really is. youtube videos can't really justify sound, and im one of the few proud rx8 owners in my county.
i was also curious if i would have any issues with the police. i live in Connecticut, and there's a lot of really loud cars around here. especially near where i live. i just dont have the money to install it then have to go and get it uninstalled because a cop has nothing better to do.

Thanks in Advance for the help guys!!!!!

When you remove the cat the car gets way louder, when the packing in the resonator melts or gets eaten away it will be even louder and raspier.

The loudness doesn't really bother me. I love the loud ricey sound, even if an 8 isn't suppose to get that sound. Unjust concerned about police :/

It will make your ear bleed!

Not really but...

Racing beat dual resonated mid-pipe

and any dual/single exhuast will sound good.

If you like rasp go for it.

other than that you live and you learn, be safe have fun.

Pissing off your neighbors is one thing, but why?

Just wait until you could afford something descent and legal...
