Re: HKS Hi-Power Exhaust - any info

I bought the axel back for my car (03 LX) and liked it. However, It was much much quieter then I had anticipated. Which is good or bad depending on what you like.

It's a great piece. I think you'll like it a lot. Just keep it clean, wipe it down regularly and it'll like nice for a long time.

Edit: ^ yeah riceboi is right, there are a lot of threads on things like this.

Re: HKS Hi-Power Exhaust - any info

Op did you make a miss post. Didn't you mean to say....i was thinking about buying the hks exhaust, what do you guys think?

Doesn't make any sense to buy something you don't know anything about.....don't you know about our economy now. Freddie Mac could use that money.......anti american

Re: HKS Hi-Power Exhaust - any info

so you bought it but dont know anything about it? lol. smartttt... anyways its a really nice exhaust. dont expect any power from it.... maybe 3whp at the most if anything. it looks nice and sounds nice, thats really all its for. if you have any big power goals the hi-power isnt for you though... the piping is too small

Re: HKS Hi-Power Exhaust - any info

Why? What size piping is it? I think 2 1/4 is the best for all around correct?

Re: HKS Hi-Power Exhaust - any info

^^ just trying to make a fellow 7th genner happy lol... but honestly when i put on my intake/exhaust (at the same time) i felt a little bit more oomph. lol... or maybe it was just the noises that made me feel faster but i liked it for all that matters. lol. i really felt my v-tec e kick in.

Re: HKS Hi-Power Exhaust - any info

love mine but yea no power gains... i think. i feel the same way as civicsrcool. it may have been the noises or something...lol. but yea did you already buy it? if so that wasn't smart to buy first then ask about the pros and cons. its the other way around.
