Question HKS hi-power exhaust?

Is there anyone with a 3G TL with a HKS hi-power exhaust?
I've seen video clips on youtube. But i was wondering where could i get a hold of one of those exhaust? Any clues?

I don't think hks makes a exhaust specifically for the 3g Tl. I think you are
getting confused with people swapping out their mufflers with hks hi powered mufflers. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I have never had one on my TL but i had one on my RB25 setup in my 240sx and i have never heard a smoother deep exhaust. You have to weld two cans onto another exhaust, which may be expensive!

So im guessing if i want to do this exhaust set up then i will have to do a custom fit then right? or can i just buy the HKS Hi-Power canisters and install/weld them on?

I don't have any sound clips (DSLR camera with no video ), but here are a few pics installed. ATLP v2 J-pipe, Aeromax resonator, 2.5" piping to the two HKS cans. Sounds beautiful. Nice deep tone under load, no drone. It's actually pretty quiet when just cruising

I actually bought mine from the BM on here Any exhaust shop should be able to fab one up. Keep in mind, the cost of doing a dual TRUE HKS custom exhaust is still going to be costly.

cheapest way is to buy a aftermarket exhaust for cheap on the black market then to have the mufflers welded on. best to take to a real exhaust shop, not a meineke because they are underpaid and do horrible work. reason being they might have to offset the driver side exhaust if i recall.

No really a fan of that look, it does not fit the TL well at all, it looks like mufflers that were just welded on... But if you like it go for it!

By the way is your car an 6-speed manual or an automatic?

First Go on ebay, you can buy the mufflers on there for the cheapest.
Then go to www.mandrel-bends.com and you can get all the piping and bends you need.

6 speed

E-bay, Amazon, etc. Real HKS mufflers are about $400/piece. There are also knockoff versions that are in the $30 range
