Anyone in Eastern NC(Raleigh Area) with RB catback?

Anyone in or around the Raleigh area with an RB catback? I'd like to hear it in person before I buy it, and I'm sure someone local has it. Note: No supercat or other midpipe, I just want to hear the RB. PM me if so, I can drive up to meet you.

I don't know if this is what you need. I have an 89 GTU, non -turbo, RX7 and about two years ago I had Rotorsports Racing in Kannapolis, NC rebuilt my engine. Since I had the engine street ported at that time and the cat and catback exhaust system had been patched so many times I had a Bonez highflow cat and an Racing Beat Catback exhaust system installed. It is not loud, but has a nice, mellow tone. You are welcome to see it and listen to it at the Grand Rotary Rally on Saturday afternoon. I'll be at the Falls Dam parking lot about 3:15 PM and at the GRR site all afternoon. Just stup by and ask for GTUser.

If you're still interested, we're having a Raleigh Rotary Drive-In this weekend at the Char Grill on Strickland Road, north Raleigh area, it is just west of the Six Forks/Strickland intersection. Here's the best picture I could find of the Racing Beat exhaust, gives you an idea what they look like on a 7:

I would also like to hear a RB catback too, but I can't make the meeting this weekend. I would also like to know if anyone in the Raleigh area has installed the Revi and CAI from RB.

i have the REVi and cold air from RB and about to install the RB catback soo...im in WILM NC. ive heard about the exhaust from RB..that its very nice sounding...not obnoxious and is a mild increase in sound when gassing it.....which basically is the same for those interested in my intake systems sound.....i had the open filter KN on and it was FRIGGIN DISGUSTING, like a dirtbike! i took it off immediately and put the full REVi on and its great...better power through and gets a killer sound up around 5500 and gets somewhat louder but not as obnoxious as the open air intakes....and damn the power increase is nice, good response. great for town driving too , doesnt wake up everyone. as for exhausts i have the RB on the way after checking on everything.....and they post good dyno results whereas some actually are losing power! tthe RB post a 3.5 hp gain.
