Max you gotta chill with that statement. HKS is by no means a fail and I understand you fast intentions guys get glued to the customer service, but calling the HKS catback a fail is like saying Bush gave us a good eight years in office. LUDACRIS!

I said that cause you said would scrape... HKS and FI are very close in alignment style... i think if you would scrape one you would scrape the other...

Cant you enjoy a ride on the Failboat everynow and again?

But scraping titanium canisters or whatever metal they are and carbon fiber are two different things. And I would only buy the FI CF style catback.

HKS has ZERO chance of scraping.

I would go with the HKS model because the canisters are too big on the fast intentions exhaust. If you look at the way HKS constructed their exhaust you'll see that is totally different. The canisters are smaller but additional resinators are welded onto the canisters to create that deep sound you love. Once the HKS model is installed, the additional resinators are hidden behind the rear bumper. After buying the HKS model a few people told me they would rather spend the $700 difference on another mod but that decision is up to you. My next MOD is the GTM turn key FI system so intake, headers or a reflashed chip would be useless when a TT kit is installed. GET THE HKS MODEL AND YOU WONT BE DISSAPOINTED.

Your HKS exhaust is useless with the GTM turn key as well. Your will be losing alot of power with an HKS exhaust compared to AAM's 3 inch true exhaust.
