RX8 mid pipes..

[Nutsid]

Racing Beat sells just the replacement pipe for $239. It won't create any silencing properties, but that is what a muffler is for, right? The way I see it is that the stock exhaust is so quiet that putting a straight pipe there in place of the cats is just going to make the exhaust actually heard. lol

Do you honestly think it would need the resonators in there to remain quiet enough for daily usage? I mean all I hear in my Rx8 is engine when I get on it, none of the exhaust at all. Then again, I was used to an FB with head to straight pipe to racing beat header. If it is quieter than that, it would be livable in my mind.

When i do this I'll be sure to keep the cats in case it is too loud, and assuming that I do actually do it. Still undecided if I will.
