Got my Exoticspeed R1-T exhaust and highflow cat installed!
 

So my stock catalytic converter was damaged and for this reason my car lost a lot of power and driving it was just a nightmare...at Mazda they were asking for $1400 just to the catalytic converter..i thought that it would b my chance to have my first exhaust! My choice: Exoticspeed R1-T and highflow cat.
First impressions:
Beautiful exhaust, very attractive. Now i've seen many videos on youtube about exhausts and this exhaust included...never expected it would b so pleasant!!! so deep!!!!! so bad ass!!!! Everybody on the streets they look at me like: wtf? who is this monster coming??
I'm super satisfied with this exhaust.. I guess i feel the car faster too...
I posted a video on youtube and here are

dude ....drive slow .....it says "caution speed camera ahead!" ....lol....jk

Hahahahaha!!! I know right? Can't help it bro..

lookin good i like your ly is the interior custom or did the lys have the yellow option

Sounds great! Glad you are happy with the exhaust! Beautiful yellow 8 too

lol you said you feel the car faster.... Nice exhaust the car looks HOT!!!! I always wanted a yellow one

that's hawt -_-

I love turning heads with my exhaust too :)

liking the sound debating whether i want to go hiflow or catless when i get my exhaust

Nice..I like the burnt tips! or it looks burnt haha

Nice! Sounds great!!!

Sweeet dude, love the exotic speed exhaust.

Sounds good.. And familiar ;)

sounds pretty good to me

looks good.

how was the fitment?

That sounds REALLY good man; great choice

thank u..what's ly? the yellow seats came like that..the leather is fading tho..how do i solve that?

;) thank u

lol...i sort of feel it :P

it's fine...so far no melted shrouds..

thank u man!

LY...also commonly known as Lightning Yellow in the rx8community ~ thats the colour code of ur car ~

the seats did not cme factory yellow someone must have added them. i have only seen all blackleather and the cloth

Gotcha!!! It came like this

It actually came like this from factory...i dont recall seeing any rx8 with cloth seats..there r leather seats like mine in other colors like grey and black and red and black..those r the ones i've seen so far.

I love this exhaust and cant wait till i get mine....

Which highflow cat did you go with?

Envy you:) I am trying to buy the same exhaust for months now, but always something else comes up:( I feel though that the time is coming soon:)

the one from exoticspeed

i understand..that's how i feel about the turbo...i'm saving up to get it..maybe end of the year or beginning of next year!! ;)

May I ask where you purchased this and for what price? I'm considering this exhaust.

Assaultech!! here on the forum..i called them..around $1100..almost $1200 with tax i think.. dont remember pretty well.

I really like this exhaust's sound and design, but I can't get over how the tips look like they were just hacksawed-off tubing. It'd be nice if the tips were rolled or tapered.

EDIT:
I take it this is the cat?

Noticing there's a spot for the O2 sensor, I assume this does not cause a CEL, correct?

There are other exhaust tips that u can buy in the website..check it out..and yes that is the cat i got..
it does cause a CEL some times...sometimes the light comes on and sometimes it doesnt..or maybe i got a problem..i'll check it tomorrow at this body shop..at least the CEL only came on the 2nd day after driving it too hard...i actually drive my car like i stole it...fast all the time :P

Aha ata boi, thats how they should be driven, get all that carbon out of the engine. but why assulttech? why not get it from exoticspeed directly? cus im getting my rII carbon exhaust soon and im thinking about buying directly from them. did assulttech give you any accessories like decal stickers or shirts?

Thanks

Oh man I see thoes awesome neon underglow lights......

Exoticspeed = Great Success!

Lol..thanks man..I guess from assaultech they were offering a discount or they still do. Yeah they gave me this chrome or aluminum exoticspeed decal.

dude i need your help! i have been looking to buy the exoticspeed r1-t exhaust for my 04 rx8 but cant figure out where to buy it from? is there anyway you can help me out? your car sounds/looks badass i give you kudos!
-Brittnie-

the rt-1 is discontinued. And you can buy from assaultech they are an exoticspeed distributor talk to Dan or you can buy directly from Exoticspeed.com - Sorry, we are under construction

When I look at assaulttech.com it says that the r1-t exhaust does not fit the rx-8. The only ones that were available were the s1-t and the R2-Titan. Did you have to do any modifications? Any advice would be great!
