Help/suggestions on a cat back and HFC

CSGLEON · 01-07-2015, 04:09 AM

I have a 2012 auto with k&n drop in's.
I live in austin tx. And someone told me to get test pipes instead of
Hfc's for improved hp. Then someone told me test pipes are illegal.
Wtf should I spend 1800 dollars on and what brands for CBE and or HFC/test pipes? Like should I go with stillen? fi? Or cheaper? Can I actually use test pipes vs hfc's. And I want a deep throaty sound. Plz someone point me in the right direction. And of courrse I want more hp/tq
There is allot out there and I don't know where to start.

You want a deep throaty sound? Get armytrix exhaust and berk test pipes

If you want deep with minimal rasp...
Go FI HFC(non res) CBE(non res) with carbon fiber mufflers

Well with you being in Travis or Williamson county I would highly suggest you use HFC's. They use the sniffers for inspections in these counties and test pipes will fail. If you live in Caldwell county like I do you can use test pipes but it's just a matter of time before I see the sniffer there. Good luck!

pretty sure his budget mentioned above of 1800 wont allow that armytrix exhaust.

OP just go get yourself a Fast Intentions set-up and be done. it's the best on the market and within your budget.

close thread.
