Our cars sound a lot louder than WRX's do with test pipes BTW... Turbo cars are always quieter...

No issues with my dealer and the HFC's they even replace 2 02 sensors for free under warrenty for me

That is one of my biggest issues. It cannot look riced-out at all. I was pretty set on HKS until I read this....dammit.

sounds like you want hfc's. test pipes can tend to be a bit raspy although you may see more gains because of less restriction.

also, the g exhaust is 3 sections - y-pipe, mid pipe and mufflers. most exhaust systems are catback so they replace all 3. some are just the rear mufflers though. you can also buy aftermarket y-pipes.

Well after hearing some clips on Youtube, I'm leaning a little more towards Fast Intentions for the sound and it definitely doesn't look rice.

Not at all, i got non-resonated test pipes and the smell has gone away and it sounds sweet

HKS sounds exotic??!! lol thats a new one
IMO (after hearing Greddy, Borla, FI CF and Magnaflow on the G37) FI sounds the most exotic and looks the meanest!
