Has anyone tried their exhaust specifically GP Sports EXAS Spec D?? Thanks

Also is anyone running an exhaust with no resonator, how does it sound?? Thanks

I don't know any info about that particular exhaust. However I'm running a gutted cat and 3" cat-back Ebay exhaust on my RB20 and it sounds very, very nice :) The piping is straight through, even the muffler (so I doubt it's doing much muffling). I love the sound of it though. It's very distinctive but I'm not quite sure how to describe it. The only part I can describe is the loud bang when this thing backfires, which it does quite often ;) Heck sometimes when I rev it at idle small flames come out the back. Now I just need a 3" downpipe to finish off the package.

I try not to let it backfire around the police (pretty easy to not backfire if you use a light foot and shift early) since that would just be another thing to get attention to my car when driving.

That cat-back looks somewhat like mine. I didn't have that rectangle muffler piece in the piping though. Mine was just 3" piping all the way back until the muffer/tip. I wish I knew who made it, but I don't have a clue. Mine did come with a silencer like the one pictured though.

its a reference photo. the way exhausts are setup pretty much follow the same lines as the oe....just less restrictive areas (bottlenecks). mine is hella straight and no resonator but i had mine custom done by a shop that handles local race cars.

i couldnt tell you exactly cause cars sound different. i know dtm's are loud and i went to a straight can with silencer to get rid of the noise. All obx mufflers are rated under 92dbs. mine never sounded like a fart mufler. From NA to turbo it has gotten quieter which i like but still has a throaty sound to it. my friends nur spec is hella loud.....but me after all the driving i do...prefer the rumble but not the 60-70mph droning and that changed for the better when i put my rb in and mated it up

I bought the megan racing 3" catback like 6 months ago.. it looks real nice.. almost straight hardly no bends and when it does bend its a smooth bend. I haven't put it on yet as I'm waiting for my RB.....................................................

Well, later today hopefully I'll have a pic of the MR exhaust on an S14. I had an opportunity to get the GP for 500 at the D1GP, but I just couldn't do it even though it retails for 700. I got the MR one for under 200 though, and it looks great. I'll post pics later.

Alright, I got it in today but no pic yet. It looks good and sounds great. It's not to loud, although it just keeps getting louder, but growls when you step on it. Overall, I'm VERY impressed by quality, sound, looks, and performance....ESPECIALY for $200! Just can't beat a deal like that.
