Rotary Performance Muffler?

What are your guys thoughts on them? I want to get one sometime, only problem I see is it is a dual inlet. Do they make single inlets?

Looks like the same damn thing as a power pulse, if you ask me, and it's cheaper. I hate stock mufflers. ha ha

Thanks man. I was just wondering about that, because it looks exactly like a Power Pulse, minus the chrome tips. User "Rxtasy3" on here has a dual header straight back to a power pulse muffler, and it sounds great. Funny how different it sounds with a presilencer.

This one's with no presilencers:

This one's got presilencers:

I went to buy that muffler from Rotary Performance (it is a R/B PowerPulse...the black tips are packaging/protection)last June.....The website let me order, and pay for it then said it was back ordered. So I called them, they said they didn't have any more and were waiting on the backorder.....when asked how long it might take, they couldn't give a definitive answer....could take months. They promptly refunded my money.
Bought mine from R/B (paid through the nose, but what are ya gonna do?)...sounds great in my opinion....some might think it's too quiet. My setup is really not much louder than my former 30 year old stock set up, except at WOT, then you know it's there.

yeap that is correct the black tips are packaging/protection, my car sound a little different than those on the on vids, my car sound a little more like bridge port, since my car is a 83' GSL , 13B 4 port, aggressive street ported, holley 600 double pump, RB header straight out with RB muffler. and hopefully soon a simple t3/t4 turbo setup will be in it.

Certain model years have that dual pipe connection. Depends one what you have,
which one to get. The one in the 1st post link looks like a RB muffler.

I have the RB SP full exhaust and it sounds great. RB mufflers will last forever! I
got my setup used and it still has lots of life left in it.

Yeah I want to get one but I'm short on money right now, so I've gotta hold off. A used one would be great to find, but seems like once you go RB, you never go back.
