Morning boy and girls,
I met another MSP (2003.5) owner last nite and he asked me if I had any cracks on the tip of the muffler. I had previoulsy noticed small hair line cracks starting to form so I said "yes". He then told me to go to my dealership and make a complaint, and that they would order me a new (old 2003) axel back. He then proceeded to show me his. The look is a little different, instead of the nice oval outlet its a round 3' tip with the MAZDASPEED logo on the side. The sound is what i'm tripping over... nice low grumble with a nice pitch higher up. I was just wondering if a) this has happened to anyone else and b) if the new (old) exaust is more performant than the stock. The resinator(sp??) is much smaller on the replacement and like I said louder. This is direct replacment on warrenty so it come as a freebie. (2thumbs)
