^actually, hks says that you'll get better performance out of their rear section with mods to the complete exhaust using the stock b-pipe and doing something with the stock resinator....i've done it to mine and all i have to say, is that it's really falking loud!!!!

Rep Power: 306 I have it on my car. Low, deep tone. VERY quiet. Sometimes I think my stock engine is louder, lol. Anyway, do a serach on the board, someone has a sound clip of it on here with stock piping.

Instead, I got the rear section and im very happy with it. Plus, i only paid 175$ picked up for it brand new, in box .

if your really low to the ground, u can scrape with your HKS as well due to the bent piping. If you just want a rear section that doesnt dip down like the HKS
