Well I installed mine today. Previous setup was Pettit SC'd, RP gutted supercat midpipe, and RB exhaust. Used to be very loud and raspy at all speeds and at all rpms. Now its very muffled almost a non existent exhaust tone, which is what I was aiming for. Now its all SuperCharger and it sounds so exotic. Just pure lean mean whining machine...

I love the way it turned out, I too have had multiple RP catpipes, and hope that I will not suffer the same situation that speedy33 has been in.

i had several midpipes installed and all totally burned out after a few months.

i think the only midpipe that hold longer is the bhr midpipe..

I got the first batch of RB midpipe in march or april and it's exactly like it was when I installed it. It now has 8000km on it (5000miles). You must be unluky or maybe I am lucky.
