Dont get HKS. Its over-rated! Go with Fast Intentions Intimidator. Its cheaper and its, IMO, a better system. HKS is too high-pitched and raspy for me. The Intimidator system has no rasp at all and is a nice deep growl. Plus, how many exhaust manfacturers allow you to talk directly the the man who built the system you bought?

Fast Intentions

Fast Intentions
fast intentions and hks dont even compare in terms of looks and sound. if hes looking for hks, then he probably wants something loud and something that looks aggressive (with the muffler setup and the torched tips that is). depending on which intimidator system he would get, which i assume would be stainless steel, the intimidator exhaust is more expensive than the hks system (if you don't consider the holody sale price that FI is giving right now). hks doesnt rasp either. hks has way too many customers to let customers talk to the people who designed the product. i'm not bagging on fast intentions or anything, but if they ever get as big as hks then it will be very difficult for tony to talk to every single customer of his.

again, im not bagging on fast intentions...but these two systems dont compare. i could understand if someone suggested injen because it too is loud and looks similar to hks (but imo, injen looks way worse because the tips are way too far from the mufflers). but fast intentions is theopposite of hks. its subtle looking with small oem like tips (i dont know what its called when the tips are rolled...rolled tips?) and its quiet (compared to hks, injen, rsr, etc).

fast intentions exhaust seems to be considered along with stillen, nismo, fuji, etc (other ones that arent so aggressive looking and quieter).

jmho.

Fast Intentions
Fast Intentions is not cheaper it's more expensive for a one of their systems comparable to the HKS system. Screw you FI people and your stupid rhetoric
