MS sport exhaust installed!!! Luvin it
Hey everyone. I just finished installing my MS sport exhaust and it is awesome. It's just what I was looking for. At idle you can hardly tell it's there but when you get on it, it has a very rich sound to it. Couldn't be more happy.

I had mine installed today, loving the sound ... but I am having some issues w/ the mount. The right muffler tip is slghtly elevated, moreso than the left. The tech at mazda was a really cool guy and told me some stories about his first car [rotary pickup] among other RX series vehicles he had the pleasure of owning and working on. He also, however, told me that it appears the right mufflers rear hanger [I assume] was welded on a little too low, causing the right tip to rise. It is a difference of 1.5+ inches max but I think it is starting to get to me.

sorry to change subject... but when you say "At idle you can hardly tell it's there but when you get on it, it has a very rich sound to it" is it still quiet under normal driving conditions? i.e keeping it under 4k rpm?
Thanks
Thanks

I would love to hear a flyby clip of this exhaust, so I know what other people on the road are hearing. I would obviously supply this clip myself, but I don't have anything to record with, so if someone has time and would like to record something cool like that it would be appriciated.

I might do it today after work, but again we are not quite sure exactly which exhaust he is talking about. I have the dual muffler setup and it sounds grate. Also have a sony digi-cam that should do the job.

Brice-RX-8 hit the nail on the head. I've had mine installed for a couple weeks now and it's exactly as he described. I've accepted that pretty much any aftermarket exhaust is going to be louder and drone at least a little in certain RPM ranges. Personally, I'd like it to sound like a 350Z or G35 exhaust, but then again the rotary does have its own sweet note. We'll just have to compromise a little on the sound with aftermarket systems, for now. But the MS dual exhaust does sound nice -- almost exotic -- and you can keep it subdued until you go WOT. Then it just roars...

you guys are really tempting me now! Im ready to fork out the money for this.... Is the diameter of the MS (dual) exhaust tips larger than stock? and can you feel any performance gains from it.
#16
Yes I am talking about the dual muffler MS exhaust. And as far as any gains.... I would have to say that it is probably all in my head but it does feel like it has more pick up. Probably just a result of spending $600 though. But who know's. All I know is that it sounds amazing and it turns heads because of it's different yet exotic sound.
#17
You spent 600 ? Where did you buy it from ? Well actually I suppose after install mine came to around 600, but as far as performance gains, the Ear & *** dyno agree, MS dual muffler exhaust is good to go like ****** taco bell !
[caution: real life performance gains may not exist in reality or may be extremely nominal]
