Default Speaking of RMB's, any one have one for sale?

I can order one from our Western Canada supplier up here but I always like to ask the list if anybody is looking to sell a used one.
Eventually I would be looking to buy an X-pipe as well, so if you have one for sale let me know.
Thanks, Ole.

Ole..........the X pipe couple with a RMB is very loud. Its fun for the first few kms and scaring the neighbours but then becomes quite irratating.

I've tried many set ups with stock cats w/ RMB, X ipe w/RMB, X pipe w/ stock S4 rear muffler and the X pipe with GT rear muffler.

Its is the last configuration that my car now has..............great tone and powerful sound. Much work was done in developing the X pipe which adds +20hp which was built by Dave Lomas in Utah. My car has the smaller GT style resonators

If you have the larger resonators the sound will be fine. Small ones will drone you out of the car unless you put the muff back on. I went with the GT muff but have an extra set of large resonators in case I want to switch it up.

X-pipe with stock muffler is my intention but would like to save the extra money for more important 928 projects for this summer...RMB has a great sound with a small cost for now.:evilgrin

I should point out that after reading many threads on Rennlist on the subject, my end goal is your set up, but want to save this years 928 budget on other projects more important.

I was thinking the same thing...I can make one in my garage but the new price is 150 to 250 so is it worth it?

I would just bring it to a local shop that does good work and be done with it. You aren't leaving any power on the table and saving a lot of money!

I bought two nice 3 inch chrome tips and added them to the duel exhaust. I think it is much better and cost under a 100 bucks including labor. I later added two Dynomax race bullet's instead of the resonator. No drone, mean as hell!

I have a video of my exhaust on youtube. It is under my avatar name iwanna928. I have tried to learn how to download my video's to the forum but I haven't figured it out yet. If someone could post it for me that would be cool.
