Swap RB Resonated Race Pipe for High Flow Cat

Hi everyone,

is anyone interested in trading a Racing Beat REN.v2 race pipe (04-11 per RB website) for a high flow cat that will bolt on to my 2004 Rx8? As much as I like how the car rips at high rpm’s with it on; the kids aren’t happy about the smell and i hate going into work smelling like Jiffy Lube. I currently have the stock cat on now but since my versatune is set for a straight pipe; I have noticed the car not pulling as hard as before. Other option would be selling it and then using the proceeds to buy a HF cat.

I've used this if you're interested in purchasing new. I've had two or three of these over the past 20 years

Good evening, I believe you forgot to post the link or pic. Which HF cat where you referring too?

Ok, got it - thank you. This was actually my first plan but after inquiring - it seems like rx7.com is experiencing issues with orders due to a partnership split.

I ordered a few items in Q1 of this year with no issues and only have had good experiences with Ari and his team. It doesn't hurt to reach out to them to see the availability and get an ETA if you order. Anything past Q1, not sure but I'm going to be ordering my efini y pipe for my FD from them in the next week or two.

Awesome, let me know how it goes. I want to order the HF cat from them since they offer a warranty on it to my understanding.
