Arrow What kind of exhaust should I get?

What kind of exhaust do you guys recommend? I have a Greddy turbo kit and some extras. I want something full 3 inch and I've been searching and comparing the Racing Beat and Agency Power exhausts. I like the Racing Beat alot better as far as a quality fit and finish along with the mid-pipe. Any suggestions?

i have a great suggestion, give me the greddy turbo kit. not only will this help you run your car more reliably, i wont tell you to search youtube for sound differences and this forum for horsepower differences.

unless you get a midpipe (and a midpipe is a midpipe, no difference) you wont see any noticeable gains from an exhaust. so it comes down to which one you like best.

also, the turbo will greatly muffle the noise.

I have the RB exhaust on my 04 rx8. I am still na til next summer, but I love the deep quiet sound. Didn't want anything raspy. It is very quiet until you get it revved up then it comes alive.

i have the agency power set up that comes with a midpipe. fitment is a issue for stock rear bumpers. be sure to eathier let the shrouds melt(they will stop as the tips settle after about 50miles so dont worry) or get exhaust shrouds. the kit is very loud. robly the loudest. but for the cost it is the best i think. cuz it comes with a midpipe. and quality is very good. but it is another shiny part that not a soul will c wit out a lift. but for a turbo set up it a no go. it to open it a 4in kit. get the HKS single. u need sum backpressure for tht.
