For X-mas I gave my RX-8....
I thought about throwing one of Ray's resonators on the pipe but I think I'm going with just the cat to see what that sounds like.
There's a chance I'm re-doing my exhaust setup next year so it's all up in the air for now.
your turbo probably quiets the exhaust down a bit but I'd be curious to hear the difference between one with a resonator and one without.
Maybe I'll get lucky and someone will be running a BHR pipe at the dyno meet.
that reminds me, I need a dB meter.

lemme go look at the dyno line-up, someone's gotta be running it.
Pretty sure Ray has the catted version on his car but he's not scheduled to get on the dyno.
I think Todd has it but he's turbo'd now so that's not an apples to apple comparison.

Nemesis8 has BHR res and CAT welded into his pipe. He has the RB intake, RB header and RB exhaust. His motor is ported which changes the sound a bit.
Dondo has the BHR pipe with no CAT, AEM intake and MS exhaust.
I have the BHR pipe w/CAT, AEM intake and Corksport exhaust (which many sounds like the MS exhaust).
Both nemesis8 and dondo's exhaust note are considerably louder and that is mainly due to turbo.
Nemesis8 took vids of our cars if you are interested.

links to said vids???
Laythor is coming to the dyno meet and he has the normal BHR pipe
I believe Ray has the catted version on his ported motor with stock intake
Either way, should be interesting.

maRxtin: pics or it didn't happen! 
pdxhak: that's a really 'pretty' dyno bay.
I'll check out the vids when I get home, my work computers won't do it justice

You will need to crank it up a bit to really pickup on the different notes each car produces. None of cars are exactly what you are looking for but it should give you an idea 
, me too.
