Ohhh...just that Cool.

How's RB exhaust? I have been toying with an exhaust update. The stock ity bity tips are pretty underwhelming.

Although what's odd is the RB (this is the only item I found) is $425

This Corksport is $499

Unless I'm missing something, seems to be a pretty significant diff in product for the same price? e.g. just a muffler v.s. CS's entire system. And the CS removes the lbs of a muffler but probably at the cost of a much louder exhaust/cabin note?

Are you attending the spring cruise?

 

[mndsm]

RB stuff has always been expensive..... and with the way Corksport makes their stuff sound- i'd probably go with that given the money.

Id like to attend the cruise but i work till 200 on sundays. About the RB exhaust i LOVE IT!!!!!! Its exactly what i was looking for...The tips on the RB exhaust are way bigger then stock and slightly bigger then the CS exhaust. The exhaust is nice and mellow but gets loud when u step on it and NO drone out on the highways like you would get with the CS exhaust. And just FYI i did own the CS exhaust but sold it cause it was too loud in the cabin. Other then that the CS exhaust sounds so good from the exterior,nice deep note to it. I bought my RB exhaust from good-win racing for $409+$75shipping.

hmmmm....I just might have to check out that RB exhaust. My wife HATES the drone from my Vibrant exhaust when we're on at highway speeds. On the upside, it puts the kids to sleep pretty quickly!...lol

 

[MN2010MZ3]

haha that's funny. Yea def check it out and who knows sometime soon i can make it to a meeting and you can hear it for yourself??? Let me know if you have any other questions about it.

Hmmm, I wasn't aware that the CS stuff was iffy. Good to know.

If I can find the time one of these days, I'm gonna try and design some "bolt" on tips (aesthetic) as I did with the Vette's

Is it just the "muffler" section (as the pic illustrates) that bolts on? Did you install it?

 

[mndsm]

Nooooo didnt mean to cay CS Was iffy, far from. Sounds AMAZING.

 

[Picklz]

CS Does tend to be a little louder, I have no idear what their Mz3 G2 setup sounds like, but I have the MS6 version and Love it, there is some drone between 2200-2600 but I'm usually above that, highway speeds (65+) don't seem to cause much issue, though I'm used to pretty loud exhausts I suppose lol.

Sorry, I mis read your statement.

Yea its just the muffler part and its straight bolt on. I did install it,took about 30/40mins given the right tools and a extra pair of hands.
