Felt a difference bigtime past 6k rpm. Easy to hit the rev limiter afterwards.

So according to the dyno, the exhaust did nothing for your car.

Our 3" exhuast has no reducers, no resonators, is all TIG welded 304 SS and is the lightest weight system you can buy (in stainless). With the Magnaflow muffler and high flow 3" cat which will keep your car legal for the street I think the sound is what you are looking for. Also in testing over the last few weeks not only does the cat quiet the hell out of the system it was only about an 8 whp drop on power and as I said keeps the legal for the street.

I hear nothing but good things about the BR exhaust, like the gains and sound of the Magnaflow. I just don't like the way it appears that the muffler is at such a great angle pointing upwards, seems like it is haning to far away from the car. I have seen other systems where the muffler hugs close to the car like stock, making for a cleaner appearance. Take the Greddy Evo2, it has awesome ground clearance. Same with the AVO.

I hear ya! I think it sucks that you have to pay $500-$800 for a brand name catback exhaust system and then pay some G.O.B. (good old boy) to hack it up and weld a 3 collector to take advantage of the 3" cat. I think they should at least offer you the option of a true 3" system with the disclaimer that it will not bolt up to the factory cat.

RMR is a nice product and it's quiet.

check out some of vishnu's exhausts. They are expensive but the fit and finish and sound are excellent. Check out AMS exhausts too.

Buy a cheap catback and a pair of 3" resonators @$30 each then goto a muffler shop for some welding.

this will quiet your exhaust!!!

I suggest getting an avo turbo back. It has the largest muffler section out there. I think rnr racing is trying to sell a used one on socalevo.net, they have been tryin to sell it for several weeks now.

I had the magnaflow 5x8x14 muffler, similar to the vishnu set-up. It's so-so quiet outside, but inside was too loud for me. It seemed loud @ the rear of the car, coming from the trunk area. I also had a 3" resonator too.

good luck.
