Is the moving forward on trying to product something off the table, Richie? If you're not going to make them, I might want those base tips back to see if I can come up with something. ONLY if you're feeling like you're abandoning the project though.

Also, good video to show the sound of the low rpm grumble.

I thought this was worth a post.

I dynoed my 04 MT with 120k with the only bolt on being the RV6 exhaust at King Motorsports Dyno Day event. I was happy with the results!

Great Product Richie!

What are you comparing it against?

Three factors to consider:

1) Stock 6MT bases generally dyno between 225-230whp

2) You're using a DynoJet which historically reads higher whp.

3) Because you still have stock cats and jpipe, I would expect there to be no change between stock dyno and post dyno with true dual.

Without a pre dyno its to hard to say but I certainly would expect him to free up a few horsepower regardless even without a jpipe and pcds.

How are you enjoying yours, Andy never texted me back after but he is calling me today to update my tune and make sure I'm all set up before I do anymore live tuning.

Did I say the catback increased hp? Just messin.

Now I want to take the exhaust off and get another run in! I would venture to say the exhaust netted me 5 whp...

Great results GRECO...the RV6 exhaust is a great product and Richie is very very helpful....

when I send him an email recently, I didnt expect a reply since he is always sooo busy but the dude replied back and was helping me out....hell I dont even have the Rv6 exhaust....Quality guy he is....

but yes, an exhaust usually gains around, 4-5HP and 1-2TQ which I think I see in the dyno....

Thanks Swoosh! Agreed, Richie is top-notch and very helpful.

Now...J-pipe and HFPCs... so tempting.

lol you know rockstar for as much videos and pics of the exhaust, you would think you were the one trying to sell the true duals.

^^^ depends if you have PCD's or HFC's or OEM cats....

OEM cats will be the quietest and no rasp...then the Type S cats....then the HFC's....I dont think there will be any rasp with the HFC's and the jpipe and the exhaust....with PCD's you will be introducing rasp....

I wish Richie would come out with a 2.25" x 2in/out muffler which people cant buy for an added cost to reduce the rasp/drone for guys running PCD's....

We had a conversation recently about putting a little muffler right after the X merge....he was curious to see how my muffler fit in that location....I bet he will come out with a solution.....

1 think I know is this exhaust sounds fantastic !!!
