turbo xs informed me their exhaust fits all models of rx8, including the 09s. I was under the impression the 09+ was different somehow, and that 04-08 catbacks woudnt fit properly. Anyone got any input?

Exhaust manifold and midpipe are the same. Our catbacks are different, I believe they sit lower and the tips are bigger and in a slightly different spot.

Not 100% on the actual differences I just know that the catback is different.

I believe the clearance for the catback is different with the series II RX8s compared to the series I.

I know the CAT is different as it states so in the Service Highlights, along with the emission system itself. I believe the catback is mounted higher up and the tops are slightly higher and further apart.

Racing Beat and several others have different exhausts listed for each model.

^+1 seems everyone agrees the series 2 catback mounts in a different placement. Wonder how turbo xs catback fitsboth models?

Probably like crap or not at all :-).

I'm sure that s1 catback wont fit on s2.
The mounting position is different.

At the moment, isn't it pretty much only Racing Beat that offers an '09+ specific cat-back?

i used the Exoticspeed R1-T cat-back on my 09 rx-8 and just trimmed the shrouds a tad so the tips didn't touch. Other than that it fits fine.

My neighbors do hate my car with the Rotary Performance race mid-pipe coupled with the R1-T cat-back though...

I put the turbo-xs with race pipe on my 2010 R3 fits fine, had to get some different hangers so that the pipes would sit lower from the shrouds.....Its a little loud but I think some of you are over doing it.....I had a racing beat header with a hi-flow cat and similar style exhaust set up on my 2nd gen and it was 3 times louder then my 8 which has no cat.....if its droning inside I suggest you spray the bottom with some rubberized undercoating which you can get at any autozone for a few bucks.....I drive it and can still here my stereo without having to blast it, so I dont know what you are all talking about......
