1990 1997 Mazda Miata MX5 1 6L 1 8L 2 25" Catback Exhaust System w 3 5" Tip | eBay

 

awesome that should work cheap and simple...i don't have a cat any experance on a test pipe? any one fit?

 

cheap test pipes on ebay as well.

 

yeah thats what i found...whole set up under $250 shipped.....hope it don't sound terrible. if it does that will just force me to turbo sooner i guess lol....thank you for the links

 

ha ha. if you got the spec miata exhaust you'd Turbo faster. it would sound like dickass.

 

Yep I have a Springfield SM exhaust. It is the worst freaking thing on my car. My co-driver bought it for the car so since I had no out of pocket I said lets get it on there. The absolutely most annoying thing. Drove it for a day and told him lets put the stock exhaust back on. He had already thrown it away. Took the thing to a dyno. It made a whole 2hp more at peak and that was also eliminating the cat compared to stock 160k mile Mazda exhaust. I just shook my head. We put a supertrap end (not the muffler) on it with 12 discs and its somewhat manageable to drive. Of course we lost the 2hp at peak with the supertrap. The only thing that was good about the whole experience is the 19lb lighter the car got but even that was bittersweet as it all came off of the lower rear of the car. Im still shaking my head.

And now I go and spend close to $500 shipped to get a RB header on the car since the VVT header didnt go with my 95 downpipe and my 95 header had broken a stud in the downpipe flange. I didnt want to go through the trouble of drilling the stud out or having a new flange put on the 95 downpipe so I figured why not take 3-5hp/tq across the band and get a shiny pretty header. The damn thing shows up and its freaking made in China. I feel like I should be joining a support group or something.

 

my header also broke 2 studs in the manafold...WHAT A ******* PAIN....i spent 3 hours and 4 trips to the store today getting bits drilling them out...cleaned it up with dremmel tool. looks good now..il let yal know how my ebay exhaust sounds when it comes in

 

It'll sound like ****, don't worry. If you have a silencer it sounds a bit better, but it's still just boomy and ricecan all day.

 

fan ******* tastic

 

no it wont; I dont steer people wrong.





It'll still work "okay" when you fit a turbo, since it's straight through and 2.25". Sure it's a cheap solution, but it's a MUCH better solution than a spec miata exhaust.

I suggested the system with THREE mufflers for a reason.
