That would get extremely annoying after about 15 mins on a long drive. Though, if someone gave me a bike exhaust I wouldnt mind putting it on the the 8 just to see what it sounds like.

Guys, for all of you who say it would sound like ****.... just listen to the S2k in this video. Almost sounds a little like the Furai to me...http://videos.streetfire.net/video/T...ding_90519.htm

BTW guys after posting the vid of the s2k over on bimmerforums I've found out that the video is doctored and the pitch is higher than it should be so its not really the actual sound. I say someone do it though.

I don't understand the desire for a noisy exhaust on an 8. All it will do is make sure that everyone notices how slow the acceleration is.
Unless, of course, you have a 3-rotor 20b with a turbo. Then you can make all the sweet noise you want.

If you drive slow though, no one really ever knows how fast or slow the 8 is anyways. They'll look at it and be like "Damn I bet that things fast" when I'm taking off from a light, and little do they know, I'm taking off with everything that 1.3 has to offer! lol
The 8 isnt THAT slow though, I look at what I paid for my 2004, compare it to say a 2004 mustang gt, and I'd say I got the better car for a lot less money. People just expect supercar performance out of something that doesnt come with a supercar price. This car isnt about speed either, its the handling...

That's why I keep saying I dislike the hks hi-power. When I went to the WC Mazda meet (We must have had 30+ rx-8s), my car was by far the loudest, and I had a turbo. It drew a lot of attention at the meet, but it is not something you want to be driving around with for the same reason.

Yeah, that's how I feel too. Nothing makes me laugh more than watching a riced out civic making a shitload of noise being passed on the right by an old beat up stock saturn.

The smiles would never end if I could though. :D
