Power Output
Utilizing in-house dyno test facilities, the Racing Beat engineering staff has undertaken exhaust system extensive testing with the RX-8 Renesis engine. Their research has found that simply adding a large-diameter, “straight-through” muffler is very loud, and power gains are only modest. They focused their development efforts on optimizing the power output, while maintaining a moderate, but aggressive exhaust tone.
Based upon our initial test sessions, it appeared that the Mazda engineers did not leave much “untapped” horsepower behind in the stock exhaust system. Although it appears there might be modest power gains available from a “cat-back” exhaust system, be wary of big horsepower claims from any aftermarket exhaust system.
Racing Beat’s testing has provided the following results:
Stock production engine – with muffler removed +5 HP
Stock production engine – with RB muffler + 3.5 HP
Stock production engine – with aftermarket system “A” muffler + 3.5 HP
Stock production engine – with aftermarket system “B” muffler + -1.5 HPSKU: 16397 -
EXHAUST CATALYTIC CONVERTER REPLACEMENT PIPE, 04-ON RX8 RESONATED
Racing Beat Catalytic Converter Resonated Replacement Pipe, 04-11 RX8
Racing Beat REN.V2 RX-8 Race Pipe
Resonated Catalytic Converter Replacement Race Pipe – RX-8 owners have discovered that a installing a non-resonated catalytic converter race pipe on a RX-8 can produce a surprising loud exhaust tone. If your racing application or local track requires a modest, quieter exhaust tone, then the Racing Beat REN.V2 resonated race pipe is the perfect solution.Racing Beat offers a 3″ OD fully stainless steel catalytic converter replacement pipe with dual resonators for RX-8 racing applications. Fitted with two (2) rotary-designed resonator units selected specifically for the RX-8 chassis. Each resonator is tightly packed with stainless steel wool for optimum sound supression and tone quality.
Both our resonated and non-resonated pipe versions are direct bolt-on replacements for the stock catalytic converter section. Racing Beat replacement pipes utilize a genuine Mazda OEM rear mounting flange to ensure a secure fitment to the stock (or an aftermarket) exhaust system. Each replacement pipe is equipped with a sensor fitting for the oxygen sensor. (Note: Placement of the sensor in the pipe will cause the “check engine” light to be illuminated, but performance and engine systems for racing applications will not be affected.)
Each race pipe comes complete with all required mounting hardware, gaskets, and installation instructions.

EXHAUST PRE-SILENCER WITH DOWN PIPE, 88 CONVERTIBLE MANUAL
Racing Beat Exhaust Pre-Silencer with Down Pipe, 88 Convertible Manual Transmission Non-Turbo
Down Pipe with Presilencer – 1988 RX-7 Convertible Non-Turbo (w/Manual Transmission) – The 1986-92 13B 6-port engines, in stock form with the factory fuel injection, produces similar power gains with either our Header/Presilencer combo or our RX-7 Down Pipe/Presilencer combination. If you have no intentions of installing RB’s Holley intake System (or any other aftermarket carb set-up), we recommend the use of the down pipe/Presilencer combo since it offers a slightly quieter exhaust note, is easier to install and less costly. If you are intending to upgrade the intake or fuel injection system, the Header/Presilencer combo offers the greatest performance potential.
The 1988 RX-7 Convertible (w/ Manual Transmission) Down Pipe/Presilencer combination incorporates a 2.5-inch O.D. Down Pipe and our perforated stainless steel core and stainless steel wool-packed Presilencer to boost power approximately 13% – an 18 horsepower increase on a 1987 RX 7- and maintain a comfortable exhaust noise level during full power driving.
The replacement pipe connects to the factory exhaust manifold, and the presilencer connects to the factory Y-pipe, replacing all catalytic converters and intermediate tubing. (The downpipe cannot be used as a “bolt-up” component to replace just the catalytic converters.)
The Racing Beat presilencer is equipped with an exhaust back-pressure tube for correct operation of the 6-port actuators. Installation of this requires the removal of the air control and check valve and the air pump. This kit includes all necessary mounting hardware, air control & check valve cover plate, and gaskets (1 Back Pressure Pick-up and 3 Replacement Pipe-to-Presilencer gaskets).
