Okay, I got pulled over for my catback 2 times now. First time left go and then two days later I got a ticket :fp:

I put on my stock catback, it's heavenly quiet in my cabin and I fucking hate it. I want something that will look way better than the stock exhaust and give off a little sound.

Sorry if this has been broughten up before, but I couldn't seem to find anything too much about exhaust tails and tips and sound clips of them. Trying to find people that have experience with this.

I was also considering welding on 2-3 feet to make a banger pipe. Any one else have it on their miata?

IMO, the RSR ExMag GTII looks the best. It is pretty loud, and sounds nice.

I had the knock off of that one ;p I agree, it definitely looks and fits the best. I need one a little quieter than that :( I'm looking for 10-20 more dB than stock. Doesn't have to be catback it can be just the tip and I can weld it on the existing pipe. I just can't stand the stock one :l

If it's just the tip I don't think it would be much louder would it?

Nah, I installed one on my Volvo a few years ago and it didn't do much :l just thought I'd ask. Lol. Maybe I should be a gangsta and ride dirty. The cops in my area are unmerciful.

I say, straight pipe from the headers ending with blast pipes boso style. Then you would be a boss.

But in reality, what is your cat back? 3 inches? If it is, you should just get something smaller. I rock a 2 and 1/2 inch cat back and get a nice mellow sound without drawing attention. (unless I get on it, but at that point I'm speeding)

Haha, I'll just run open headers for god's sake ;p I had a 4 inch .______. I think that fart can drew the attention of the cop and I was at about 4-5k on top of that so I was screaming...lol.

Where did you buy yours? And how much is the real question :p

You were running a 4 inch exhaust on a stock Miata? wtf...

Anyway, I bought mine used from a friend. You need to try and sell yours, then go online and buy something new

Haha yep. It was waayyy too loud. Luckily I sold it to a friend that needed exhaust, so I got rid of it pretty fast. I've been searching and keeping my eyes peeled for a 2-3" exhaust with resonator.

Thanks for the help guys. I will keep you updated if I get anything.

Go buy a 2 1/2" cat back. Anything over that for a stock motor is a waste, will make the car run worse than stock and will be retarded loud.

I think he means his tip was 4"

If you want something just slightly louder, any of the Racing Beat Powerpulse exhausts are great. Very nice build quality, decent looking tip, and a straight-thru muffler. Get one with a resonator on the midpipe.

Cops never batted an eye at mine. It was on the level of the stock 350Z exhaust. Noticeable and sporty, but not obnoxious.

They are a little louder than stock but not bad at all.

Yup, the Racing Beat parts are just a tad louder than stock. Nice, low tone, too.
