REVi, Supercat, RB or corksport exhaust

If anyone has a revi, supercat (or other high flow cat), and a corksport or rev8 rb exhaust, how do you like it? Did you feel an increase in power, how much? The reason i'm asking is because i just got the revi, and the increase is nice, but i want a bit more and want a high-flow cat/exhaust combo that will be light, not TOO loud, and produces a notable gain in hp (something along the lines of 8-10 horses).

BTW, how much louder than stock is it?

I don't have the revi, but I have the rev8, and rp supercat. Its a nice gain over stock. I have no idea how much, but you can feel it. Sound is not too loud at all. Just a deep mellow sound. I think there are some soundclips around here somewhere. You'll like it. I'm trying to decide if I should get the intake and call it quits, or wait for f/i. Let us know how it turns out.

Moostafa's exhaust & high flow cat combo sounds GREAT in person a very deep pur at idle and like a beast when revved. Great way to add sound plus performance for your ride. Me and you both should call it quits for the year man but we both know it isn't going to happen :D

Haven't had any problems with the absence of the hangers. I was going to call it quits for the year, but yesterday I found out that I need to upgrade my suspension to handle the power. I'm not sure how much power I got out of this package, but when I redline and shift to second, my backend is getting LOADS of wheelhop. It feels as though something is about to give out, so I'm going to work on that. But I think I'm done after that...seriously!

I had the SR Motorsports hi-flow cat (w/ resonator option) & Racing Beat Rev8 cat back exhaust. It was about 20% louder than just the cat back exhaust. I'm 34, so I thought it was just a bit loud for everyday driving. Once I got the turbo it made the sound better. The Corksport is louder than the RB cat back. I guess it really depends on what you consider loud. Few video/audio clips floating around here. Also www.mazdatrix.com has audio/video clips of the various exhausts on the RX8.

I agree with army RX8, the RB suspension package was the best improvement I have done to my car.
