Not much of a performance difference, but it sure gets alot more looks rolling through the parking lots!

is your car lowered? i put my axel back on and it sits at the factory hieght so there is a little bit of room around the tip and the rear bumper. yours looks like it sags abit.

Exhaust Clarification?

After reading through many of the posts here, I have become a little confused about the MazdaSpeed and Mazda Sport Exhaust. Is the one available from Mazdastuff.com the one with Mazdaspeed etched on the exhaust tip? Or is that a different one? From reading the posts, I want to get the Mazdaspeed one, but just want to make sure I order the correct one.

Thanks

Vibrantvivid,

No, My car isn't lowered. The exhaust doesn't really sag that much, it's perfectly centered in the opening. It may just be the angle of the picture.

Check out the "WWW" button below for pictures from different angles. Do you have any pics of your so I can see what you're talking about?

I also want to add that it gets louder as your car warms up more. So therefore I think the hotter the engine, the more noise it makes..You get used to it after a while, When I first had it installed I thought it was loud, after awhile it isn't that bad..
