Mazdaspeed Exhaust

Ok, so I was looking for a mazdaspeed exhaust catback and I wanted to know if one of you guys would know where is the best place to get it from (internet), new or used, it doesn't matter, or if anyone is looking to sell theirs, I'm very interested...
Tnx lots!

I moved your thread. Putting it in the proper place will get more eyes on it that can help answer your question.

Mazdaspeed copied the exhaust Corksport has. I got my Corksport in 2005 and have been using it ever since.

Mazdaspeed Reliability

I've read that Mazdaspeed exhausts had reliability issues with their welds. Is this still the case? I will be getting a cat back soon and I'm still split between Racing Beat and Mazdaspeed (mostly cuz it's the name mazdaspeed). If the welds are still and issue it will swing my decision towards RB.

I would just go with racing beat if I were you, you know their quality is going to be good.


Also as a plus your car will smell like a funky blueberry muffin(or so I am told) while it burns out the oil racing beat put on the exhaust.

MS had two versions, the first had issues, the second did not.

Yeah, v2 had the issues. I had the welds pop half way around both cans!

I've had to have my MS dual canister cat-back welded twice now due to leaks. I think that it's time to tear this baby off the car and spring for the Racing Beat system!
