Default FS RSR mufflers - excellent condition

Selling my RSR mufflers. These were installed by the previous owner and have about 2K miles on them. They are in excellent condition. Asking $575 plus shipping. Pickup also OK from 75061.
Save on core charge or additional shipping costs to send in your own mufflers. Not only do they sound great but they weigh only 19lbs each vs 34lbs for the stock parts.

Both are great sounding mufflers and a BIG improvement over the stockers. Slightly different in tone, with more 'misfire' burble when downshifting in the case StgII's.

Well its been over a year since I had them on the car so hard to make a direct comparison after so long. I will defer to another post that compared several muffler options side by side....

"When we gathered for our New Year's Eve mountain run, we had a car with Stage IIIs, another with LPMM's, another with RSR's, and mine with the factory Motor Sound option, so we were able to do a side by side comparison. We did this in a rush, so we didn't think to record each one, unfortunately:

The Stage III's were burbly at idle/raspy when revved, with a tight component in the exhaust note (in other words, it sounded great!).

The Robin Suns were less gurgly, smoother, and more gutteral (which also sounded great).

The Leland Pate's were a good mix between the first two (awesome as well).

My Motorsounds were less rowdy and somewhat quieter, but still artfully noisy.

The conclusion we drew is that all of these choices sound superb, with sound pressure levels more consistent than one would think, i.e. if you're concerned that the Stage III's might be too loud, don't worry, they aren't."

If they are the ones pictured in the thread, they are stamped Bischoff.

Yes, these are Bischoff (see stamp in photos). As far as mufflers go Gillet and Bischoff cans are interchangeable.

Overpriced?
How about $500 plus shipping. At this price the buyer is effectively getting a pair of cores for free.

I am not one to poo poo in another's for sale thread, but since you asked, if they haven't sold yet they probably are overpriced. With the advent of the Fisters, RSRs have fallen out of favor over the last few years.

As a data point, I bought a set of RSRs off of a Rennlister a few years back for $375 shipped.

You lucked out there, but not really a realistic pricing reference. I paid close to that for a pair of unmodified OEM mufflers including shipping.

I'd hold out for your current price, quite reasonable to me. Exhaust sound preference is very subjective, I for one prefer my ancient RSRs to anything else I've heard.
