MP5 Racing Beat exhaust (Factory issue)

Has anyone purchased this exhaust from the factory? How does it sound? What did it cost (U.S. $)... Thanks everyone...

Peace.

I'd buy a true catback. It's pointless to spend any money on just a muffler.

Hmmm...that sucks...I figured it was made by the same manufacturer that makes the RS-R exhaust for the MP3....guess I was wrong....thanks....

I just didn't wanna void my warranty which is for 100,000 miles....after having a turbo hybrid for 3 years, I wanted to have something that would be "Reliable" and have a "Warranty"....not worth dumpin a ton of money into a MP5 anyhow, IMOA...it will never be fast unless you go with F.I. or up the compression....and then again, there goes the reliability...

Thanks for the responses tho!...I am not lookin to make this thing fast, just sound good, look good, and handle good...I already had a fast car,and it just got me in trouble, and emptied my pockets!

Thanks Man,

I appreciate your intelligent response...I will look into it, just would hate to have spent $1200 on extended warranty and void it out over a $400 exhaust...ya heard?

thanks
