Advice : Fujitsubo powergetter or RM-01A ?

[ceeazian]

Thanks for the pics!

Confusion everywhere. i must admit they both look really nice. RM01 sits abit nicer and i can see it would be alot better in regards to ground clearance.

RM01A say they are quieter than the powergetter, so how loud is the RM01!

ive been watching i few clips and the powergetter seems to have a bit more of a deeper grumble but the rm01 when vtec kicks in sounds real nice.

well where abouts are u? i'm sure you'll have one or two members would be happy to meet up with u and let u find out, but bear in mind that each car sounds different, the powergetter is prettty loud in itself, for a D series engine, i think the RM01 would be more suited as it's more responsive in the lower end as i find that the D series sounds very laggy. But yes i love the powergetter as it has a very deep sound

Leaning towards the RM01 haha calling all Perth members. Powergetter or RM01 ? got onee?? Let me hear it!

[ceeazian]

btw, RM01A has a 1-piece b pipe... where as the Powergetter is 2-piece (from that pic above).

i just got an RM01A, gonna get it fitted to my EK within the week... can show you pics later on.

imo, i'd go the RM01A... duno, i think it's a better system, plus the low noise levels means less attention. and your nice engine deserves a nice exhaust, hehe.

anyy pics yett man??

nah sorry dude, not yet... change of circumstances. had to get my car cleared for defect today, and was suggested that the RM01A would be too loud, so just got my old crappy exhaust fitted.

but after the actual inspection, i honestly could have had anything on and they wouldn't have cared. blardy inspectors didn't even test anything... anyway, that's a story for another day.

have u decided yet?

found some pics for you on ek's

[ceeazian]

oh thanks for those man ! shame about your situation. still like to see your car though. ! waste of time and waste of money the pits yeh. what did you get picked up for??

ive chosen the RM01-A man so those pics help ! wooo just waiting now

[EK9]

too low, bald cambered tyres, too loud... basic stuff, but still a pain in the ass + fine + rwc = couple hundred out of pocket

good choice - i wanted the RM01A since i had my car, i should have just bought it in the first place instead of messing around with others. oh the money wasted on impulse buys and crap parts... lol.

[ceeazian]

lol sounds like you were unlucky man!

I think we have all done that before man. money NOT well spent. My exhaust is currently an el cheapo one bought years back... also was rollin on 18" chromes LOL and full bodykit. lowered Springs.

how times have changed ! Spend the money ... do it right the first time. damn cliché !

I think the RM01 looks much cleaner, abit more stealth in that it tucks away nicer ! waiting game till mine arrives now ...

BUMP, more pics of RM01 on an EK~!

[SIL3Nt]

do either of the exhausts drone? I mean like freeway driving at 100 kph or above? need a new exhaust for the ek

[ceeazian]

somebody confirm this?

i can let you know in roughly 2 weeks. i've got my rm01 exhaust sitting in my room just waiting for my headers !

will post back once all done!

running rm01a on an eg5 with b18c, i think its loud at high revs, and can be annoying at freeway speeds, ie->3500rpms.
at idle, its non-existant, and slow driving, not noticieable, ir ur gunning it, then yes, it will draw unwanted attention. its livable, barely for me tho
