I have never seen people get so excited about a straight pipe with resonators in it.
yes i did. the quality of your product was verry nice, dont get me wrong. but the sound wasnt pleasing.

My thoughts: If scott sold it to FORUM MEMBERS, he surely must have known that pictures would be posted.

it all depends on the resonators used and how much a person wants to spend.

hollow $40 resonance chamber < $60 3.5" fiberglass pack < $80 4.5" stainless pack < $250 Burns stainless pack

http://www.mazsport.net/store/index....ct_detail&p=45

looks nice... it looks very nice.... maybe a bit over-hyped but seeing as the important thing is going to be the sound I'm still interested.

it's 2 resonators if I'm reading correctly... not a catalyst.

As for the sound, different pipes will have different sounds, more so than just louder or quieter... there are different tones. I'm guessing it doesnt pass emissions which is somewhat important but I could sacrifice that.... but also considering the HKS hi-power cat back which I think might be a bit loud paired with my RP supercat.... but I do kinda have hopes that the resonated supercat wouldnt be too loud paired witht he HKS... I currently have the RB dual which isnt too loud so even a little louder wouldnt bother me.

Either way, this is a nice looking product, and since it's from mazsport I'm sure it's top notch.

I have a question... what are the resonators packed with i.e., choices I guess being fiberglass pack, stainless pack or Burns stainless pack , or something else as I'm no expert here?

Also will these internal materials be up to withstanding the RB race flash heat without breaking up?

Thanks.

resonators dont limit the airflow. they only change the resonace of it. it still flows the same amount of air, just in a different way to cancel out the annoying sounds.

We have run them on Interceptor-X N/A cars for several months with very good success. The unit is 100% stainless including the resonator packing.
