HKS HI-POWER exhaust installed and review

and no, the HKS is not the most expensive installed kit out there. Zele takes that honor...i think.

It's a good exhaust OP, but I think the majority of people have jumped on the FI exhaust for a number of reasons (quality, customer service, price). There have been a few people that bought the HKS but they just all haven't taken the time to post pictures and reviews etc.

After researching a lot on the forums, going to different motor shops for other options on exhaust kits and simply because of the awesome customer service provided by Tony at Fast Intentions, I have decided to go with the Fast Intentions (18" Resonators), Carbon Fiber (mufflers) exhaust. =D I'll create a new thread for the pics, video and reviews when my turn comes around! I'm excited and can't wait!

The thing with HKS is they have zero customer service, even with there vendors. They also quote no horsepower/torque numbers.

There are cheaper exhausts that can be had that provide similar if not better gains with the same quality. With better customer service.. like Fast Intentions. You decide..

In price? I thought the Zele was like 5K for a CBE with the Saclam being 3.5K?

I have compared my exhaust to others out there and I love my HKS. The sound it pure sexyness! The looks blows away anyothers as well, except zele but they are 4 or 5K which is too much for nissan parts; maybe if it was for a porsche! I will try to get vids up of this thing. I have had an overwhelming number of pms sent to me asking for media but I have been soo bussy. HKS FTW, love it for sure. I will be selling it later on when it is time to go turbo, I will make a custom HKS ti exhaust with 3" tubing.

I just Installed HKS Hi Power exhaust system today, the sound is not to loud during idle. Sound very nice during high rev. Overall review it has been great. Very nice looking.

Best for those people who prefer not so loud and looks.

Crazy this thread came back up, because it is time to sell the HKS becasue I will be going Turbo soon. I will make a classified soon to sell Intake, Exhaust and High Flow Cat's. For the note I made 281.8 whp on the dyno with these installed parts. I have the dyno sheet to prove it. HKS has great customer service, they stand behind their product %100, thats part of the reason they cost so much. Its does not sound like anyone here has delt with HKS USA....They are awsome and have a group of really smart guys that love to chat cars!
