Yes, this is a pretty good deal. The greddy is usually priced around $575 as on this site(Hop Up Racing)

The Greddy sounds good and deep, not ricey, but personally I like the sound of the Borla better. It's a little more pricey (~$700) but it sounds deep and more powerful. And supposedly it's supposed to gain more HP.

Thats a good deal. I have the greddy exhaust installed and I love it. Sounds deep, but not ricey like the above post reads. I bought mine right at $500.

No, you should sell the RX8 and buy something with a V8 in it. Of course the exhaust is going to sound ricey......it's a 1.3L engine!!!! I don't care what anyone on this site says......no exhaust makes a rotary sound deep.........only loud and often raspy at high rpm.

You either like the sound of small high-revving motors or you don't. You can't make into something it's not.
