Mazda3 with Mazdaspeed3 stock exhaust

Just like the title says: This is my 06 Mazda3 Hatchback with the Mazdaspeed3 exhaust (not the regular Mazdaspeed). This exhaust actually came from a MS3. Everything is stock. I cut my original exhaust just right after the cat and had a 3" pipe added to reach the new MS3 exhaust.
Note: that I hear droning (vibration) inside. So I will be putting sound insulation under the carpeting when it gets warmer outside.

u lost power???

[mz3redrobin]

Yep it was a loss. Unfortunately...

[mobiuzlah]

does it effect the performance or not? how about the power? loosen off or gain?

[mz3redrobin]

It was a loss. I'm actually back to stock exhaust at the moment and I didn't realize how much difference (power) the stock has over the MS3 exhaust.

@chanman4821 well i own a Mazdaspeed 3, and i can tell, it's sound differant.

[chanman4821]

i dunno about you but i definitely felt some difference while accelerating on the hiway :D but would there be any difference between the mazdaspeed and the mazdaspeed 3 exhaust i personally think the mazdaspeed 3 exhaust sounds better on the mazda 3 2.3

do you have camber kits in your car ... cuz i just noticed that you have tein springs ......and they sometimes like"skuat" the car in the back a little

[goandgolf]

sounded just like a muffler installed!

Condensation.

if you want to see a performance gain its most popular to remove the 2nd cat and put a test pipe in its place. but then you run the risk of failing an emission check since it is illegal in some counties. luckily in my county they don't do e test. so i may be doing this soon.
