RP Supercat owners

Hey guys i'm interested in getting the RP Supercat and after looking at many threads i've seen a lot of you really like your midpipes, i have a Greddy SP2 on my 8 and was wondering if anyone has the same setup or a video of the Greddy/RP combo besides of what they have on rx7.com, thanks a lot, feel free to post other combo's as well

I have the SP2 catback as well. I'm also saving for the RP SuperCat.

Check these videos out, thats with our exhaust and the SuperCat.

I've looked myself. but i couldn't find any good videos. I'm getting the SuperCat for myself...for christmas lol. I will take vids then.

IMO SuperCat gives you performance while maintaining legality (in most states). I don't want to risk running no cat.

After the supercat im getting the AccessPort and calling it a day.

haha great well whether or not i get the supercat i'd be happy to see your setup i've heard the resonated MP from mazsport but the rx7.com vids and dyno charts are somewhat impressive for just the RP/Greddy

Hey, I am running SP2 and looking for mid-pipe or hi-flow cat too.
Just worried about getting pull over by a cop if the setup is too loud.

I am reading around here that mid-pipe wont give you anything (just shoot fire) if you dont have any tuning.
I might get an AP too.

its damn loud, but a mid pipe would be even louder also the Supercat is rather pricey, most mid pipes would be cheaper.

From what I heard if you want a midpipe, but want it silenced....go for a Dual Resonated Midpipe. I believe Mazsport has one.

Yes a straight midpipe is cheaper and will get you a nice performance boost....but its not street legal and will be obnoxiously loud, IMO.

Thats why I'm gonna get the RP SuperCat. Loud, street-legal, AND I still get approx 8~10whp outta it (with tuning).
