Is this what your talking about?

http://www.racingbeat.com/RX8/Exhaus...nts/16201.html

And if I get that, can I get any other cat back? Like could I get a greddy or b&b?

That's the pipe that you want, yes. With that on your car, you're pretty much guaranteed to be loud regardless of which exhaust you get.

My two loudest setups both used my ExoticSpeed race pipe...which is uber loud. That mid pipe and my Greddy SP2 and my HKS Hi-Power. The HKS is loud as ***** with that mid pipe...but now that im ported and have the RB header...im sure it will be way louder.

Check this video

I have more on my youtube page.

just keep in mind...your going to get more attention from cops as well...because you can hear these loud setups way way before you see the car come down the road.

Trust me...i have many warnings for breaking noise ordinances.

To be honest...id get a nice catback and then get either the BHR mid pipe or the RB Dual resonated mid pipe. You get the exhaust tones without being too loud.

talk to adam from thm hes a vendor here. a mid pipe replaces the cat-no cat. a cat back bolts to the back of your factory cat. ive heard the loudest is the turbo xs with mid pipe about $500.
i have the agengy power with mid pipe bought from thm for a little over $600 shipped, got it in about i week. its loud. all my friends tell me its too loud but i dont care. my gf can hear me before i turn on to my road which is exactly one mile from my house.
hope this helps jesse

Thanks! That's what I want, the ap exhaust on their website is 850$ and the picture looks like it has the ap midpipe too, how could I get just the cat back? Haha sorry, basically I'm just asking if I buy the ap exhaust for $850, would i get the ap midpipe too?

My Exoticspeed exhaust is loud, and I have a cat. I can't imagine it with a race pipe. I've set off a few car alarms in underground parking lots, and my friends are always ready when I come pick them up cause they can hear me coming.

Edit: I have some video on here somewhere of it. Not on youtube though.

??? there is no sniff test, believe me anyone walking within ten ft of my car will stink of unburnt fuel, but as long as you arent throwing CELs your fine.
