i need to replace my catalytic converters do to some heating problems and figured i would just replace the whole kit and caboodle(catback exhaust preferred)..but i want the best sounding exaust for my rx8 as anyone else does..the basis of exhaust at which im looking for must be a deep tone and not so loud(ive heard some pretty loud rx8's and do not wish to attract but so much attention from a distance)
any willing to post some sound videos for me to choose? ive done research myself just wanting to see if i could find anything else to make my final decision

i don't have a ton of experience and i'm old. i like the OE style Mazdaspeed muffler, QSEA-40-100A, its what the car should have had stock. its about the same volume as the stock but its got a nice little rotary note. of course its also pricey

the other Mazdaspeed either didn't sound as good, or was louder, i can't recall.

the RB is too bassy for me.

my car has an Agency on it, and it does sound nice, but its too loud for me. i looked at a few youtube clips and they don't convey how loud it is.

again this is IMO

ive come to a conclusion that every exhaust for this car sounds very similar. Every exhaust ive heard in person sound similar just different loudness. For me i wanted something pretty loud and went with exoticspeed and im absolutely satisfied to this day even when i turn the car on and listen to it idle.

why don't you check out youtube. Videos are already posted there.

I think you should stay stock. It won't require us to do any work for you.

I'm running RB REV8 and a mid pipe with just a Davesport 100 CPI cat.

Shot from a distance... at night...

Louder and deeper than stock but does not attract attention and doesn't even smell too bad

I don't have an exhaust on my car, but I used to have a GReddy exhaust tip on my 97 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS. I like the deep tone sound when you change gears.

I like Racing Beat. It sounds nice, even with the Agency Power midpipe.

O yay another opinion thread.

OP, everyone is going to say the exhaust they bought....

While I'm here, i'm partial to my Mazdaspeed Dual Canister exhaust.

I can't complain... I'm NA and don't race. Love the sound. I'll pull it soon and take pics

Should get an e-test done soon
