MUFFLER RX8 09-11, RACING BEAT SINGLE TIP
Power Output
Utilizing Racing Beat’s 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 Racing Beat’s 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 HP

Performance gains are comparable with Racing Beat REV 8 Street Exhaust:Stock production engine – with muffler removed +5 HP
Stock production engine – with RB street or race exhaust + 3.5 HP approx.Sound Quality
While louder than the stock system, particularly under full throttle, this exhaust system can be used for those looking for a very aggressive exhaust tone for their daily-driven RX-8. A modest driving technique will produce a moderate and tolerable exhaust tone, but jump on the throttle and this exhaust really comes to life. Full throttle does not produce a buzzy or harsh, but a more exotic sound like that of a tuned V-6 engine. During a long-distance trip to the race track during prototype testing for this system, our independent test driver commented that highway cruising was very tolerable, without any droning sounds or harmonics.This exhaust system is equipped with a stainless steel connecting pipe and all required mounting hardware.
*Measured approximately 50′ away from the side of an otherwise stock 2004 RX-8 MT under full throttle. Your actual decibel reading may vary. Other factors, including atmospheric conditions, additional performance accessories, tires, etc.. may cause variations in your actual sound measurement.
