i dont think the ~ 5 helix out there have been on a scale... it is similar to the rx7.com exhaust..
but no one has an answer for sure on who makes the muffler...
as to tia.. or preformance.. this exhaust is about sound..
if it is 3" all the way to the y, and 2.5 back, it will be fine.. if you dont update your exhaust header gasket. doesnt matter...
this is not something ground breaking, but if it comes in at that price it would be a good thing..

ok..
you said that the taiwanese company is going to do a test mule proto copy of this exhaust and put it on THEIR RX8...
this sounds tricky..cause i am a taiwanese and i know taht in taiwan THERE IS NO GT SPEC RX8 (our manual with 6 port). all they have had are the 4 port auto rx8.
i think this might make a difference on the sound even if the exhaust is repliacted to milli cm perfection.
anyway..
i am sort of interested in it given that the price can be lower than 430 cause the real one is only around 540.
and of course, we will have to know what kind of material its gonna be made into...

i cant gurantee you anything on the date, R&D on the exhaust might take a while, but i can guarantee the price will be between 450-500 dollars and that it will be a 3 inch exhaust.

nrider: did you take it off just to weight it? not installed yet? used to have it on your car?
hmm... never hear anyone talk about this exhaust. I'll have to look up some info just for fun.
