This is the one that Dan sells over at VividRacing?
A little pricey. I listened to it on their turbo RX-8 and it sounded nice enough. Tips are HUGE.

Its actually a good deal MM, because the price includes the midpipe . Yes the tips are Huge! I actually saw it at HIN on the Pepsi RX8. I pre-ordered it but ended up canceling after seeing it in person and not liking how huge the tips looked.

Was it ever discovered if this was a true 3in exhaust? From the other thread, we are kinda just left hanging.

it tapers down to meet header but that should help due to it gaining velocity instead of just hitting wide open pipe. also should help with sound too

so anyone else with this exhaust? i did a search and this is the only thread i got. how much does it weigh? should gains similar to a high flow cat be expected (8-10hp)? i saw it at rx7store and its only $800ish for the catback and midpipe. originally i was thinkin of just doing the rp supercat with stock exhaust, but thatll cost $490 shipped, so now im considering this

i have been wondering about this exhaust for a while but gave up on it. Best bet is to call up vivid racing and ask. I am still not sure if it ever was ready for production. I remember a few people try to order it but just cancel because of the wait time, but that was a couple of months ago.

It may be out there, but i think it is a big secret

So do any of these exhausts attatch to the headers???? I seen on the JIC titanium that it says it has a full exhaust that bolts to the headers.... I think if you were going to get a exhaust that the JIC would be the best bang for the buck... I also wanted to know if anyone knows if the HKS exhaust is a full exhaust... I really would like something a little more that just the cat back.

This is one of the exhausts I was considering too. I'd be willing to do same day before and after dyno's and send it to them to use for advertisement like I did for their pulleys (except they were not same day dyno's) if they would shave some money off the price to help cover the cost of the dyno's.
