Good to hear Jason.

What is the difference b/w a "midpipe" and a "resonated midpipe"?

Will there be a significant change in the loudness?

How would it work with the new M-Speed Sport Exhaust?

I would assume then also that by adding the midpipe and the high flow cat to a freer flowing exhaust, that hp/ torque would increase?

3 inch stainless steel Midpipe. $199

3 inch stainless steel resonated midpipe $280

3 inch stainless steel high flow cat $345

Each system comes with bolt and gaskets and has a bung for the 02 sensor, so no need for 02 simulator.

I will have pictures shortly but these look like all the other ones on the market.

For the first few customers I will discount these items so I can get some feedback. If interested in these please call or send me an email jason@rx7store.net



Thanks

The resonated midpipe has a resonator or muffler welded in to cut down on noise. The regular midpipe is a straight pipe. It will work with any after market catback exhaust. It will allow the exhaust to flow more which adds HP/Torque.

So I am assuming that you will NOT get a CEL with any of these?

Jason 01-06-2006 03:38 PM

As long as the 02 sensor is plugged in you shouldnt.

Jason

AKBen 01-06-2006 03:50 PM

I've got a B&B midpipe and muffler. Your high flow cat should bolt up if I wanted to change out my midpipe right?

Jason 01-06-2006 04:26 PM

Im responding to all emails sent.

Thanks

Yes it should bolt up to the B&B muffler.

Jason

epitrochoid 01-07-2006 09:58 AM

what's there to stop the PCM from giving a CEL if there's no cat?

also could i get one with an extra bung for an EGT sensor already welded?

dova 01-07-2006 01:37 PM

im in for the 3 inch stainless steel Midpipe. $199***

***only if it is compatible with greddy exhaust.
***no cel would come out ...

Jason

what do you mean by it shouldnt?
you dont know or is not going to give a cel... any testing on this midpipe
dyno...etc etc... or video how loud it is...

i will really appreciate any feedback...delivery to 78228 $$$$$$$$

ddub 01-07-2006 02:32 PM

Emailed you Jason. I have money waiting and ready to order as soon as you give me the info.

dont think so... just not going to happen... not being a jackass just food for the brain.. on anything that doesnt have a cat...

rxeightr 01-08-2006 09:31 AM

Some RX-8's have not thrown a CEL when the cat has been removed. Those seem to be the exception rather than the rule tho...

Jason 01-08-2006 07:33 PM

I will respond to all emails by tomorrow morning and try to get some pic up in the next day.
I will keep the discount on these open for another day. I have at least 15 people that are interested.


Jason

ALXVA8 01-09-2006 11:14 AM

Jason, is the RX8 Store cat-back 3" and has it always been sold this way or did it used to have a smaller diameter?

Is there a major sound increase with this new 3" hi-flow cat? Is the resonated mid-pipe quieter than the hi-flow cat?

Do you have any before and after dyno results of the hi-flow cat?

Jason 01-10-2006 03:39 PM

Our exhaust has always been 3 inch. The high flow cat will be a little louder than the stock cat and not much of a difference in sound from the high flo to the resonated. No dyno graphs yet.

Thanks Jason I got the RX8 cat-back now and I just was not sure. I sent you an e-mail about the high-flow cat because I'm really interested in it.

ddub 01-14-2006 07:06 PM

Called Jason at rx7store yesterday and ordered mine! Can't wait to get it, once it arrives I'll take pics if none have been posted yet.

Thanks Jason, very excited!

It will go nicely with the catback you make, can't wait to get both on :mdrmed:

snowrydr01 01-18-2006 11:36 AM

Very interested, pending audio

jason,

PICS, specs?????

Jason 01-18-2006 02:06 PM

Sorry for the delay on the pics. Im waiting on my shipment of these that I hope will be here this week.

Jason

ddub 01-18-2006 07:40 PM

I just can't wait to get it :)

It is the last piece of my exhaust puzzle, and I'll finally be able to install everything at once. Jason and rx7store always seem to put out good stuff, at least from my perspective, so I'm quite excited.

couple of quick questions....did you end up going with the high-flow cat or one of the other two? also, do you know if this midpipe comes with a hanger, since that seems to be an issue with the rp supercat?

ddub 01-19-2006 12:29 AM

I got the resonated midpipe. Dunno about hangers, but that's an easy fit so I didn't care enough to ask.

dova 01-19-2006 09:38 AM

Im getting desperate here... i want the midpipe ... and im planning on getting k&n intake but im worried about getting CEL any one has a fix to this or EXPERIENCE

ddub 01-19-2006 09:42 AM

I read something on an evo forum, I think, about extending the O2 sensor bung so the O2 sensor sits out farther. This in essence takes it out of the direct exhaust stream and fix the CEL problem since it wont be reading as much unburnt fuel.

ALXVA8 01-25-2006 11:12 AM

dDub, how's it looking?

ddub 01-25-2006 07:26 PM

Haven't received it. Last post from Jason in this thread said he was still waiting on them from the people making them, and then he'd be sending them out. I'm in no rush, I paid early to secure the GB price and to get it quicker :D

Jason 01-29-2006 03:44 PM

Good news. I will have these tomorrow and post some pictures.

Jason

ddub 01-29-2006 04:26 PM

Sweet, does that mean all the "group buy" or early/special order people or whatever will have theirs shipped out next week?

brillo 01-29-2006 04:44 PM

does anyone know what the stock cat weighs? How much is this new one?

ALXVA8 01-30-2006 11:36 AM

Well, dDuB, seeing that you put your order in and especially seeing that Jason should have these units in hand today pushed me to also put an order in today. I went for the high flow cat. I already have the RX-8 Store cat-back.

ddub 01-30-2006 06:38 PM

Cool, I was wondering what the high flow cat version of the pipe would sound like versus the resonated/no-cat pipe. I also have the rx8store catback, though it is not on yet. I'm doing all the exhaust at once.

musclecarconvrt 01-30-2006 06:53 PM

I'm interested too. I've got the Midpipe with resonator from Canzoomer but took it off because I got sick of the loud rasp and CEL from the cat delete pipe. I would so love to be able to put my exhaust back on and run the Canzoomer again. This should bolt right in place right?

jcataldo 01-30-2006 08:08 PM

High flow Cat
 
I am also intrested in the high flow cat, what is the weight and sound difference? I Have a borla cat back, will it bolt right up? Thanks

woodysjh 01-30-2006 10:46 PM

3 inch stainless steel high flow cat $345
is this a rx8club price? does this include shipping? does this include the resinator?

Jason 01-31-2006 08:37 PM

Looks good, can't wait :D

ECHO1 01-31-2006 08:44 PM

will your high-flow cat pass emissions and void my warranty? :D:

Jason 01-31-2006 09:05 PM

Good question. We have not done any emission testing on our cat. Im sure we will have some results soon.

Jason

what about some video and DYNO GHAPH...

G8rboy 02-01-2006 01:00 PM

Jason-
I'm interested in the high-flow cat... a few questions though...
Do they have metallic or ceramic elements?
Are they meant specifically for rotaries (i.e. can handle the excess heat over time)?
Does your price include gasket and bolts?

Thanks!!

Jason 02-01-2006 03:06 PM

Our cat is metallic and the whole high flow system weights in at 11 lbs.

Price does not include gaskets and bolts. You should be able to reuse the stock gaskets.

I will try to get some dyno results, but they are going to be the same as the other systems on the market. They're all 3 inch pipes so there shouldnt be much variation in numbers.

Wow... that's light. Still wondering about it's longevity on the rotary (because of the heat)... I know this pipe is specific to the RX8, but has this particular cat been used on RX7's?

Jason 02-01-2006 05:02 PM

The cat we use on our RX7 systems is made of the same material and we have never had any issues with it. We have been selling those for years.

That's what I wanted to hear... once I get my 8 tuned and running leaner I don't want a $350 melted cat as a paperweight :)

Thanks

rx8wannahave 02-01-2006 05:55 PM

Is it me or is that price for a high flow cat pretty good?

By the way, what #'s are high flow cat's giving? I thought I heard 8-10HP....am I right?

Jason, are you planing on getting it emission tested? I'm not in an area that does that kind of stuff but I was just wondering.
