MXP or HKS Hi Power ?? Which would you choose.
 

Hey guys..

Just about to purchase one of these two brands..

Question I have is which would you choose and why?? :)

The magnaflow I can get for $902 + Shipping ($379) and the Agency for $850 + Shipping ($225). (Shipping is expensive because its going to Australia.)

1. Magnaflow Exhaust 16595 Cat Back Exhaust

or

2. Agency Power Catback Exhaust.

imo agency looks better and less restriction = more power

Would it be cheaper considering the shipping to get a custom one built?

I think though I would go AP - cause I like the cans - you can prolly get it cheaper then that to.

Not really, custom is actually more in Aus.. rather a bolt on

AP at $850 is the cheapest I could get...

^Really? I have no idea over there dude, obviously ;-)

Does it have to be either of those two?

You also should consider the sound difference between these two? The Agency will be louder than the Magnaflow for sure. The one bad thing about the Magnaflow is those slip joints. If they are not installed correctly they will leak :(

Do you have a specific goal in mind? Like, sound, HP gains, etc?

Good luck :tup:

Magnaflow one has a X-pipe.... AP one has nothing.

totally AP

magnaflow is just like stock. sure it will be better than stock but designwise its like the stock exhaust.

I guess it depends on how important the money it to ya. 1281 for the magnaflow that has the X pipe. Scavenging is your friend. X pipes tend to tone down the exhaust note. I don't know how much that matters to ya. If you want something that is a little more suttle I would go that route. I don't know if it is worth $206. I am sure they are both fine exhaust.

Yeah..

Doesn't have to be those two.. Just trying to get a cat-back under $1000 so I dont pay tax etc..

I assumed the magnaflow was better as it retails for $1600 and the AP for $1000..

I do indeed like it fairly loud, at the end of the day thats why I want an exhaust.. But no stupidly loud.. hp gain would beneficial..

If your in Aust, buy a X-force system

Bang! - no duty

X-Force is el-cheapo quality..

Magnaflow uses 409 SS piping = FAIL. I would not consider it for that sole reason.

Any way you can get an Invidia in the line up? I dont think its far from that price range, but then again, I'm not so sure in AUS.
...This is assuming you wouldn't consider a Fast Intentions unit :D

The Invidia CBE might be good for your price and it won't be annoying loud!

Just a quick search and I find it here: http://vr-speed.com/store/invidia-hs...ck-p-9133.html

Not sure if they ship to down under but it's a start ;)
