    Tried searching but exhaust brings up every vendor, not a possible Mazda one.

    Was told that the car I just bought had an exhaust system. I climbed under there and on the bottom of the muffler and the resonator just upstream of the muffler it says Mazdaspeed. I also measured the width with a tape measure and it was 3".

    Did Mazda sell a performance exhaust?

    Come on over to the shoutbox? Its a little slow seeing as its a Sunday, but it's faster than posting threads.

    Also, it sounds like you bought a car and it was previously modded? Maybe start with a welcome thread with pictures of all the things for people with a bit of know what to look into?

    P.S. send nudes of the sister / gf for expedited service.

    I posted a introduction thread already, no pics tho. The only mods it has is megan racing suspension and maybe exhaust, that's what I'm trying to find out.

    Would have been helpful to post that you have a gen 1. Yes they sold one for the gen 1 it was rebranded from a major manufacturer I just don't remember which one

    I had the Mazdaspeed in raised letters on the underside of the muffler as well.

    If I'm not mistaken, it was Magnaflow. The pictures that Sho has shared even shows a slip fit part, which seems to be a Magnaflow thing.
