Just got the HKS exhaust today..not sure if I'm feelin it....

So I got the HKS today! Man...those tips are HUGE! Then I opened a few pics from my CL folder on my hard drive. It looks alot better on the car then in the box! The best comparrison is Comptech vs HKS. I prefer HKS for sure after seeing them side by side!

I'm gonna go to my Dad's muffler shop on Wednesday to get them installed....He ran the place for over 10 yrs....and recently retired and is leasing it to some new guys....all I gotta say is they better not charge me!


p.s I just ZAINOED the tips! ANYONE ELSE DO THIS????

Hey, it only takes 20 mins each to R&R them!

They sound really good! - very deep tone, but not too loud! Especially, after the engine gets warmed up! (it's quieter at cold start) When you pull away from a stop light, they sound BAD ASS as the car pulls and shifts into each gear!

It does take a while to get used to those huge f'in coffee can tips, though!!!


TIP: get a couple 3" hose clamps to put around the rubber hangers - that way you can adjust them up so they don't hang down so f'in LOW - They look perfect with a fingertip gap from the top of the tip, to the underside of the arch in the bumper fascia!
