Kinda miss mine. I sold it cuz it was a bit loud in the cabin and switched to hks legamax.

Btw is it just me or is the shape of the exhaust not a perfect circle? kinda like it was pushed in or dented at the top left corner near the 10 o'clock position

godshand86 04-25-2013 06:39 PM

Yeah it's pushed in cause the exhaust tip is not on I was putting on but took it off cause I don't want to draw to much attention in NY, it's bad enough that its loud...

It will melt your shroud in a day or two without the tip.

Are you serious? Why? How?

rx8inator 04-25-2013 10:15 PM

because of the heat... you might notice the color of the shroud will go from black to a grayish color too

yea, you can't do anything without the tip...hehehe
Sounds good

Sounds good!

Mr_Pieper 04-26-2013 06:48 PM

Without the extension of the tip the heat rises up directly into the plastic. After almost no time it will start to melt and disfigure. Ask me how I know.

Damn, that does sound clean, may have to think of getting rid of my mazdaspeed cat back for that.

Dude thanks, I drove it for a just one day without it and I see what you mean about melting the shroud, I just installed the tip car still sounds amazing, hopefully the cops in NY don't start to bother me...

I have the dual-muffler MS catback and I encourage you not to. Its plenty free-flowing enough. Just get a quality midpipe like the BHR (what I have) or the Racing Beat.
