Fast intentions is a custom exhaust made to your liking. They have multiple options to chose from. Better options then HKS but overall its all about what you want.

Holy jeebus, please take everyone's advice and not ruin a quality part. Still not satisfied? Sell it and I bet you'll still have enough for a different catback.

I have the HKS with Berk HFC's, its plenty loud. Mine sounds about the same as the link below although this guy has TP's. I'm very happy with the HKS and glad that I went with it.

You're referring to test pipes which are a lot different than HFCs.

Reviving this from the dead but has anyone done it? I have the same setup with berk HFC and the tone is nice just not loud enough. At this point with the HKS system selling so cheap would it be worth cutting out the resonators? Can anyone who has done it chime in

I just installed Megan racing TP and Agency power true dual exhaust. Gains are what I expected but the sound is no where near where I want it. It's loud but very raspy especially when I let off the throttle and not deep enough. In the cockpit it sounds amazing but when I roll down the window it sounds like a ricer to me. Gonna delete the resonators and I'll post a sound clip. Should happen by Thursday

Nothing is worth cutting a perfectly good aftermarket exhaust especially HKS. I just don't care because i'm not looking for gains at the moment just sound until I improve the performance for the TP and exhaust kit it was $800 brandnew. If you're hoping to get gains then I wouldn't. As soon as I finish this build I'll be going to FI or Armytrixx
