Yes, I am very close to buying the Comptechs as well. Acura of Bellevue is running a special, $775 installed. But I am going to buy from Tim instead and install myself. But I'd rather pay $499 for the HKS if they are really that much cooler than the Comptech.
PLEASE give some good advice.

Gosh... those look pretty sweet. Is there any special installation instructions? Do they pipes match up completely? Do you need to purchase any hangers or spacers or gaskets?

I'd only vote for the HKS due to the special they have on this forum. Personally, I'm very happy with my Tanabe SM Hyper Medallion catback exhaust. Nice and clean sounding street exhaust. A lot louder than the HKS/Comptechs but I like louder exhausts. Not as drony as the Greddy Evos.

Thats why i went with Comptech.
