Alright so I have done A LOT of research on youtube and the forums...and yes I did use the search function so put the flame throwers away for this time. Im stuck between agency power exhaust and turbo xs exhaust. I have also looked at racing beat but I heard its barely any louder than stock and plus I can get a race pipe and a resonator midpipe with the catback exhaust for both ap and turbo xs. Im down to two vendors on the forums who are both offering crazy deals on these two exhausts but I'm trying to find the tie braking fact about one of them that would win me over. Which of the two would you choose and why? I know I'm asking for opinions but I want to see what people have to say about these exhausts.

btw i can get the ap full exhaust and ap pulleys for 760 shipped! and another vendor has the turbo xs full exhaust for 499 but I haven't found out how much more for shipping yet

Thanx guys!

 

I would go with Agency Power, in fact thats what I will be buying soon enough once I get the cash together. Just know that the midpipe does get raspy once the packing in the resonators is gone.

You do also know that the exhaust wont work the way it is, right? You have to modify the tips or the hangers to have it work in a s2 rx8. I plan on doing the tips when I get mine, gotta lower them a certain amount(not sure on the specifics).

 

Yea I've heard that minor modifications to the exhaust would have to be done to hang better for the s2 rx8....I just hear so many stories/opinions that after a while they all sound the same to me. I feel like the more I search in the forums the more undecided I get haha

I just want to know some straight facts to justify and help making my decision

 

What kind of facts do you want? The only difference in the exhausts should be sound.

They should both have the same gains I would imagine or very very close. Do not listen to what turboXs says about "24 whp gain" with catback and midpipe, that's complete bs.

 

hahaha yea I figured that. Idk after all that I guess it would come down to quality, sound, and fitment. I checked out youtube clips and they seem pretty much the same but sometimes they don't do it justice. I might just go with agency power since I hear that the turbo xs system has a little more than minimal adjustment for the series 2.

All I know is that when I get it I'm posting videos on youtube and on here haha. Theres no videos of a series 2 rx8 from what I've seen on youtube or on here so I'll be the first if not the first few.
