Ok so im lookin for exhaust and i came across the HKS Hi-Power and i was just wondering about how some fellow tC owners feel about it.

 

first of all, it all depends what kind of sound youre going for. if your going for that high pitch sound or if youre looking for that low pitch sound. you need to find that out, then ask us the question.

 

I really dislike how the HKS comes out at an angle. Did you give the TRD a good look. It sounds so great!

 

Chitwin,

I was really close to buying the HKS, but i just could not get past how it looked mounted.

IMO, it is probably the best sounding exhaust.


If you want people to know you have an exhaust, get the HKS. If you want something subtle, closer to stock, but still a deeper, nice tone... check out the Greddy SP2.

TRD sounds ok, but doesnt really open up any HP. other axle back exhausts will give you 5.5ish WHP.

 

That a look at these if you haven't:

draxas exhaust is a great bang for the buck, check them out, i will be installing their exhaust this sunday

 

TRD really sounds great.

I'm looking to keep my car as low-key as possible, so I've been looking for a very quiet exhaust.

If you like some sound, though, go with the TRD

 

ive got the TRD exhaust as well. not too loud and overall a really nice sound to it. i love it.

while getting out of some traffic i was speeding up to 70-ish and went past some corvette, i guess they felt a little threat and decide to make a show, they came up real quick right behind me and changed to my left to come up past me, to bad I was at my exit, i kinda wanted to see what they were gonna do.

 

i just installed my hks exhaust last week, this thing is amazing, by far the best sounding exhaust ive heard so far. it never got raspy for me, and ive been in really cold climates. i also feel the power difference too.

 

Get custom. that will solve all your problems =)
