I heard that hks hi power exhaust is only for "Turbocharged" Rx8 and it is not street legal. I am confused. Someone help me out here please. My rx8 is not turbocharged. I really want to buy this exhaust if it is street legal. Also where will i get them at reasonable price. Help me out guys.

No, you don't have to have a turbo to use this exhaust. It is definately street legal because you are not removing the catalyic converter. The reason why people say it isn't street legal is because they add a midpipe, which gets rid of the cat. Check on google under products. You should find a good deal. Also, you could pm Lazi, who works for Invision Performance. He might be able to get you a good deal. Hope this helps.

Thanks. The reason i was confused is that all the sites selling Hks hi power single exhaust for Rx8 have this in their description - Single Sided Exhaust for Turbo Applications with adjustable length Ti tip

Whats the phone number for invision performance inc. I called the number listed on their website (https://www.iptuned.com/aboutus.asp) but looks like its not the right one. I had ordered the HKS Hi power exhaust from them, and wanted to know when it will be shipped. Anyone know the right number

I have the RP Supercat that you are talking about, I about it from the rx7store.com aswell, I love it it adds a more of a deeper sound to your exhaust and sounds even better when you hear it from the outside, right now i do not have the Greddy cat-back, but that or the Borla is either my next step, when I get a little more $$$...I have heard rumors that you can get the midpipe it to shoot flames, but i have never really tired!

For those who claim the MazdaSpeed exhaust is quiet:
It's not. Sure, it's not loud like those found on rice burners with 20" fart cannons. It is, however, pretty loud when revved.
At idle, it stays quiet. Don't know why you'd want to have a constant humdrum drilling into your skull at every traffic stop, so I'm going to put the quiet idle as a plus point.
I have a MazdaSpeed Dual Muffler cat-back. I can post sound clips if I can find someone with a video camera.
