Exhaust components

i have been looking for a 3" presilencer/ resonator whatever you wanna call it. im still relatively stock, fresh rebuilt motor, stock turbo, intake and custom exhaust. i currently have a 3" downpipe, a cracked 3" resonator, custom 3" to dual 2.5" y-pipe, to dual 2.5 inch aero stx mufflers. my tone is noticably more mellow than it was with a straight 3" exhaust, but i have a feeling that my cracked resonator is the reason my exhaust still isnt quiet. i understand rotaries are not quiet, but its my DD so i kinda want a car that draws a little less attention. i have been looking around and im looking at 3 options;
1: http://www.racingbeat.com/FRmazda2.htm the medium 3" Racing beat Presilencer, if i cant fit option 2, the large 3" presilencer. I understand many of you will say go with the 2.5" turbo presilencer, but 1, i already have a relatively new y pipe made for a 3" inlet, and 2, i plan on having around 350rwhp before my car is done ( probly like 2 years...)
the other option im looking at and looking more intensly is this option, http://www.eatmotorsports.com/produc...3732&v=related
I understand this is "nissan specific" but realistically, it seems like its meant for turbo'd motors. i cant find any sound clips of it, but it should act like a resonator right? can it hold up to rotary heat? anyone try this before? anyone find sound clips of it? i might be the guinea pig if someone can vouch that it would fit in the stock cat location and if it can hold up to rotary exhaust heat. sorry about the huge paragraph, and thanks for reading...

Racing Beat part number 16425P, $249.



I have the full REV TII system and it is outstanding. The can does look a lot like their large standard presilencer, which is about $150 less, and it sounds like you might need a custom fit. Just buy a good presilencer (Racing Beat's would absolutely fit the bill), get some 3" stainless pipe and flanges, and have a shop weld it up.

i was debating between the REV TII presilencer, one of the universal RB 3" presilencers and that SaRD TCV, and im slowly getting more interested in the SaRD thing. Right now im more curious if that TCV thing will hold up to Rotary heat and if it should work the same. I took a leap with my aero stx exhaust mufflers and im still happy with them, nice mellow sound, great flow characteristics and it seems like its handling the heat.

Sard have very quality parts.. The sard tcv must hold that heat, inside isn't like muffler, there is only spring that hold up..

I have this, this old school sard.. This sard tcv is new school, but is same thing..
