Default Who's interested in Dual Resonated MP??

I just got off the phone with the owner of No Limit Industries and he said he's interested in building the Dual Resonated MP for the 8.

He could definitely beat Mazsport dual resonated MP and do a GB for 375-400 ish..

Let me know if you are interested and I'll donate my car as a test subject!

It will be pretty much the same as mazsport version with RB Medium resonators and all. All Stainless!

Cool, Ill try to pass it around. Since my current exhaust is 2.5" (Hymee), would I need to upgrade to a larger exhaust or just suffer some power loss compared to a full 3" setup?

^Honestly, it could either way. I have the HKS 3" Hi-power cat back and my numbers actually went up. I'd be willing to buy this midpipe, especially since I want to start adding more 2-stroke.

I would be curious if they could keep the sound down like the MazSport midpipe.
I know a guy who had the Agency Power dual resonator (yes dual... not their single) midpipe and ended up selling it for MazSport's because the sound was still too loud and raspy.
I personally have the MazSport Dual Resonated midpipe and would love for someone to come up with a cheaper alternative.

Did anything come of this? With Mazsport gone now.. a void has been left open. If someone can make a dual resonated midpipe that compares to mazsports sound deadening and quality (no rasp) that would be good for all..

I'm in for under $400.

Phil talked to me about it and I agreed to build these if there was enough interest. Phil had some contacts for the resonators, but nothing has been brought up to me within the past few months. We can still build these, just need to get things in order.

On the RX8Club forum, someone is in communication with Racing Beat to create a dual resonated midpipe.

I revisited this info today and received some pricing. I can get the hi-flo, ultra quite polished stainless resonators, flanges, tubing (which I already have plenty on hand), O2/wideband bungs (also plenty on hand), gaskets, and stainless mount...weld it all up and I think we can be in the $375-400 range. Full stainless, full 3". I would really like to have a stock piece on hand for building the jig and we can run from there. Anyone interested in letting us use one for jig fitment in exchange for a reduced price, or possibly free, MP?

For the pricing above, I would need at least 10-20 buyers for that price reduction. Otherwise, it would be in the $425-475 range for single purchasers. I will check some of my other sources on some of the items to see if I can get a better price break. I'll update soon.
