for some people it's not just about the sound, noise level also has something to do with it. If I was stricly driving the car on a race track then yes I would prefer the HKS, but for street use knowing how cops are with import cars the RB's is a better choice. Anyway as soon as the wastegate open's you get the full sound as long as you have it vented.

i got the silencer for the HKS Ti exhaust and it really helps reduce the sound of the exhaust by a lot for daily driving. it's much more bearable now commuting in it. But at the track i just remove it

I have the racing beat dual tip, with a RX 7 store resonated midpipe, and it is actually right at the legal limit (94Db) That is with a single turbo.
If you **** around out here in Cali. you will get pulled over, popped, and heavily fined.

I like my rb single tip but i wish it would scream at WOT like the HKS does. As a daily driven car i don't think i'll go with the HKS unless i get another Daily Driver. I think i'd like to get the RE Amemiya Twin dolphin tip; It's kinda inbetween the two.

i love the best of both worlds
i wanna see how it does on the dyno tho
Rb is kinda growing on me
i thought it would be too stock looking but the tips are actually larger
heres some pics
RB
HKS TI
i love how the hks angles out, but i love the rb for its sleek stock look
damn im spoiled

I actually did the swich from a RB to the Greddy Ti. I traded with a member on this board. The Ti is A LOT lighter then the Racing Beat. It has a deeper tone to it, but it's a bit louder. I don't miss the RB. I'm also single, so loudness isn't really that big of a deal, since my waste gate dumps to the atmosphere (much lounder then the exhaust).
