I will be waiting on this and see what the outcome will be when compared to the RB dual resonated midpipe.

I too want to hear a side by side comparison of the bhr vs RB dual res...based on what ive read about the bhr pipe so far, seems it will sound VERY comparable to a RB midpipe but cost $100 more. We will see!

$100 extra for amazing unparalleled customer service, warranty, and a midpipe that will never loose packing? Sounds good to me. Plus you get to listen to Ray moan and groan over his products being too perfect all the time and have him call you at 1am to make sure he's meeting your piping needs

Racing Beat's prices do not include Tax for us CA folk nor do they include shipping.
the difference is much less then $100.

In my opinion, since I've had both the Mazsport DR and the Racing Beat DR, I can say both are almost identical in terms of loudness and sound quality.

The guy who modified the flanges did it improperly but I am sure he'll fix them the right way by working overtime tomorrow night and we can stay on-target with our progress.

Crack the whip.....



I'm sure the guy is trying his best Ray. I've ditched my plans for the RB dual-reso pipe anyways.

I keep playing that video back w/ the MS V.2 Exhaust paired with the BHR Midpipe: Music to the ears!

I wonder how it'll sound with the Odula RS.

Update!

I just got off the phone with Ray who will be on the road the next few days and he wanted me to pass along some info.

The newest prototypes should be finished this week and more Beta testing will resume on some of the BHR cars so stay tuned for updates in the coming days / weeks.

While the details are being ironed out, I'm pretty sure that if you're in the SoCal or nearby area, own an RX8 and like BHR's products you're going to want to be at the upcoming event.
