Hks Hi power install (5 min's of work) results

I know they aint good photo's but Im taking the s2 out... in 5 mins for a serious shoot. I wasnt even expecting it, but there and behold it showed up so after 5 min tops, it was on and running.

thoughts; HOLY SHIT, most quiet exhaust Ive ever heard, The borla from toyota on my echo was louder by far lol! Oh well! Completes the ass end!

oh and she is DIRTY so sorry. Too much cottage trippin.

Dayuumm! Looks nice. Almost went this route and would not have had any regrets if I did. Also +1 on how quiet the hi-power muffler is, even on my Focus you can't notice it much.

Wow, that thing is quiet. I'm glad I just paid $50 to get a mufflerectomy. I get actual sound when I get on it. Cheaper and better sounding IMHO.

Sure but understand that hks put a lot of time and effort into thos keeping it near oem levels and providing whp gains. For roughly 5whp you cant bitch and as it gets broken in, it will get a tad louder.

Any to, dick and harry can make a super loud look at me muffler but it takes a real companyt to actually spend R&D into their products such as HKS,

thanks!

I have the HKS Hi-Power on my GE8 Automatic. Fits perfectly and sounds just as good as the manual trans due to the 5 speed auto.

I love it! I had HKS on my EP and it was the best sounding exhaust I'd ever heard...plus its a quality piece that looks fantastic.

I have had the HKS Silent Hi Power axle back exhaust system installed on my auto transmission GE8 for a few weeks now. I'm totally happy with it aesthetically, the way it sounds at idle and when accelerating. Absolutely no droning at all at highway speeds.

I ordered mine from Japan, ??????????????? FIT

Seems they rate it 82db for auto and 90db in manuals.

Way too easy to take to a muffler shop...

Jackstands and a wrench...and few minutes time. The rubber hangers come off pretty easy with a shot of WD.

Not much to it...
