NJ Turbo XS exhaust fit on 09 rx-8?

Does anyone know if the Turbo XS catback fits on a 09 RX-8? Does anyone have this exhaust? Feedback on it? Gains?

the turbo xs comes with a catless midpipe.

we are talking 12-15whp for the entire headerback.

Racing Beat is the only company that makes a catback for the 09 as far as I know. Midpipe is still the same.
