i used my cell phone. all i had at the time

gh8st 03-03-2009 10:58 PM

yeah dude, if you like it, rock it.

05rex8 03-03-2009 10:59 PM

sounds like a fart can and it rattles. yay.

TopGear8 03-03-2009 11:09 PM

Sounds pretty ricy to me...

StevieD561 03-03-2009 11:20 PM

dude, i like the sound. go with what you like. everyone will have their opinions, but it all comes down to what you like. you're the one who has to drive the car.

im running stock, so i give people props for going out and doing their own thing (even if it involves jacking threads, ricey bumpers, too much chrome, asymmetrical debadge, and a blowout haircut.)

well.... lets be honest with ourselves... there are plenty of expensive systems that sound a lot worse then that....

doesn't sound to bad to me, doesn't sound great either..... but either way, it's hard to tell with a low quality vid like that.


good job on doing your own thing and thanks for sharing

hey man i just saw your vid, it doesn't sound bad, but honestly it doesnt look good, try to push it back into the bumper a little, it will look better. not bad overall :)

bumblebeerx8 03-04-2009 02:00 PM

sounds ok but still dont care for the look maybe its out of the bumper too far but if you like it go with it

+1:piss:

Ok, one more time. People...don't you get that an audio recording from a camera is not going to be the same as the real thing? Not only that, but people have different speakers, sound cards, etc. So why bother hounding the guy about it?

I'm not a fan of single exhausts on our car like many, but hey...whatever right?

jefecito87 03-04-2009 03:01 PM

two holes two exhaust tips.... tilt.....rice.....fart can.... rice

not feeling it at least put another of the same on the other side itll sound deeper and flow even better....

ferg 03-04-2009 03:46 PM

i bet that thing will slow you down?

L337fpc 03-04-2009 04:05 PM

If you moved it back into the bumper...and had a better camera...it might be 1/2 decent, IMO.

But for going out there and making ur own custom exhaust, +1.

O and i'd put that on the other side, that way u can balance your weight a smidge better.

Is your bumper is melting? :SHOCKED: :SHOCKED: :SHOCKED:

No no no, i bought my rear lip off another rx8 owner. I think he probably had like HKS legamax dual and it started to melt, and even then Veilside said that this lip might melt with some exhausts, im guessing the ones that are running full race pipe because they run hotter.

Yeah you are right but im going to go catless (race pipe) soon. and then we'll see the gain. about 10-12 hp.

TopGear8 03-05-2009 05:20 PM

^Keep dreamin.

RE Amemiya" you guys would be all over it (some of you are like who ? ) you already fail
and there is a ton of advantages to single vs dual

Are you serious? The one reason I'm turned off by this exhaust is the aesthetics - had the muffler not appeared so 'pep-boy-special'ish, I would actually support the idea - the shiny tin looking muffler with short stubby tip look just does not do it for me! An RE-Amemiya product would have much more taste and clearly be of higher quality.

tiltmode43 03-05-2009 09:03 PM

What is up with large exhaust tips being the cool thing? I personally would like my tip to be the same size as my piping...

Was I the only one that caught this?

I would like to know what pipe gives our car a 10-12hp gain.

Um...all straight/single/dual resonated mid pipes...

ShadowRx8 03-05-2009 11:44 PM

Well I'm sold on it. If I was going to decide to do this I would rather Choose an Apexi N1 Ex Ti Muffler instead Just Because I have quite the Good history with the N1 Line from Apexi. so congrats SynistaRX8! for doing something Unique.

might want to check again. 10 is optimistic. I'd expect around that with a tune.
