I'm in the market for a new exhaust as well. I found this link (http://www.autospeed.com/cms/article.html?&A=0383&P=6) but it's a bit outdated (1999). It lists audio clips as well as noise and flow. Anyone want to post specs of their exhaust?

I put the HKS on mine and jacked this sound byte from another HKS "induced" P5.

I loved my mazdaspeed sport exhaust but I wanted more power so I decided to get RB cat back.
If any of you guys wanted to get Mazdspeed sport exhaust, I can hook you up with dealer that will only costs $200 to shipped through UPS ground. I think he sells it exhaust for $175 + shipping. :)

I have the greddy EVO, and it sounds great, not too loud , not too silent. Search for Greddy EVO, and you will find two of my videos on here.

no it just that with intake and exhaust, you will feel power gain better than just intake itself or exhaust itself :)

Bijou were you the one that had the link to the black injen RD CAI for 202 shipped? If so can you post it for me again if you dont mind?

As for those asking about exhaust stand alone and the combo of intake also remember all these bolt on parts are oriented around air flow, so If you have a good exhaust system to get the air out then you should also have a goodsystem to get it in the engine also. Combine the intake, exhaust, header/downpipe, high flow cat, cams and so forth making the entire air flow system the same will orduce the most power and make it the most even across the power band.

Also when buying remember it is almost always better to have the same size piping all around, it can get bigger as it goes out the exhaust but otherwise if you use 3" for the intake use that all the way around as much as you can, prevent the air from being compressed and then opening and back and forth, more air turbulence/pulses.

This may be the link you are seeking:

Shipping depends on where you are...
the polished CAI is ~$7 cheaper...
