I am not a big fan of teasers, but now that I received the goods I understand the temptation -- and could not resist.

More to come...

Send us some detailed pics of the exhaust itself while it's not installed! The welds, piping, quality, etc. That would make this a very helpful thread for whoever is interested in HKS. Do it, do it, do it!

 

O.K., I'll try to remember to take picks when unpacking.

Don't get in a hurry...not sure how soon I'll be dragging the box home and installing the system. This will be a weekend project (probably not this weekend though).

I snuck a peek at the parts (wanted to make sure no obvious shipping damage) and everything looked good so far -- especially the "burnt" titanium tips; sweet!

 

woohoo bro
i just bought this exhaust ( after saving up 2400 after 5 months lmao)
AMAZING SOUND
nothing can replicate how perfect HKS got it
NOT too loud and ricey yet has a fantastic deep rumbly tone that maintains the VQHR37s sound. It also gets quite a few stares when you drive by
Oh not to mention it looks absolutely deadly under the car, like some alien technology or something,
enjoy bro
well done on choosing a true JDM product that will cease to amaze you,
No i dont work for HKS i just love the HI Power, hated it on my last car ( RX8) love it on the G

 

I'm curious about this exhaust. Don't have a lot of info or sound clips of this. Want to see how the sound compares to Ark. I'm sure everyone on the forum would appreciate a detailed review and sound clips of your HKS. So Ark is a copy of this HKS, is that correct?

 

Welcome to the HKS club

 

Yes. You can also look for soundclips from a 370z for exhausts because they sound identical.

 

Have heard both exhaust in person. I personally have the HKS. Ark is definitely louder. And definitely deeper. And therefore I could say it sounds more aggressive. It is also definitely a lot cheaper than HKS.

BUT when you look at Ark directly from behind, you can see one of the canister (I think left side), hangs 1-1.5inches lower than the other side. It does not look even. Don't believe? Go research for Ark installed pics on the forum. And yeah, it is a "copy" of HKS.

 

LOL whatever ARK says, it is a copy.

HKS=my next egg sauced.

 

Thanks for the info guys!

 

Thanks for the feed back...nice to have someone validate my choice...

Do you have any installation tips?

Thank you,

Congrats man...I've had my Hi Power for 3 years now and it sounds amazing from the first day I got it installed! However, I do notice that it has gotten a little deeper in tone over the years after it gets broken in from all the carbon build up! Enjoy!

 

subd!!!!!

 

no installation tips other then it takes around 30 mins give or take 10 mins
Oh Dont forget too let the car cool before you touch any pipes
