    is the mazdaspeed muffler for the P5 worth it.

    Nah, when you live in a small town you get use to the lack of law enforcement patrolling around the outskirts of town. I am still using the stock hangers. I did not like where the exhaust sat after the install, it was a little wop sided so I used some hose clamps over the stock hangers to...

    Are you telling me right turn on red does not apply to stop signs also ? The car is a lot more comfortable to drive around town on the audible side, I use to have to press the clutch in when I passed a cop. The N1 also had more of a deafening drone when driving highway speeds to where you would...

    I am running 2 1/4" starting right behind the exhaust collector in number 5.

    I would not think that it would give you lag. If you are running a turbo set up then yes you would need a more free flowing exhaust tubing than stock. I took mine on a 300mi trip yesterday and I am not noticing any difference in performance from the old set up. Only tone differences.

    You want to know what sux's more than a universal exhaust, a gutted universal. This exhaust screamed rice when you hit the accelerator.

    I did not suffer from any lag. However I did just finish clearing all my CEL problems. I had to space out my second O2 sensor to make it think that I have a cat. Removed and cleaned the carbon out of my EGR to help out with the erratic idle, and had to splice in an intake temp sensor donated...

    Well after having it roll around my trunk for almost two weeks I had mine installed at Midas. They cut the old one out had to get my pipe adapted down to the 2" flange welded the flange in and bolted the mazdaspeed in all for $52 ! I was rolling out within an hour of arriving. The mazdaspeed...

    Parts for axel backinstall

    I found a good sound clip of the magnaflow here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecjwjUcN8xQ I didn't realize it was so raspy that sound is pretty close to what I am dealing with also. Just thought it would be more throaty being a magnaflow.

    Parts for axel backinstall

    What is your reasoning going to a mazdaspeed in lieu of the magnaflow? I am just curious as I have not heard in person either one in action. I have checked out a few youtube clips of them but I am sure the vids do not do the tones justice. I do have a new mazdaspeed awaiting installation when...

    is the mazdaspeed muffler for the P5 worth it.

    Picked up both from amazon with free shipping $20.53 for the flange $4.25 for the gasket. Part numbers are VIB 1470S for the 2 bolt SS 2" Exhaust Flange and 1455 for the 2 bolt 2" Exhaust Gasket. I want to order a new set of urethane exhaust hangers before I go and have it all installed. This...

    Here is the flange I ordered to be welded in so I don't have to cut the mazdaspeed exhaust. I downloaded a db meter app onto my phone so I can get some before and after sound level readings and I am probably going to do a video comparing the two also.
