I have a G35 with an INJEN exhaust and intake. I like it, it sounds a lil deep. Not raspy at all.

besides i could have a lot of money left over to buy more mods so that makes it more appealing than the HKS

What's wrong with you members, Injen? How do you compare the great sound and HP gains between HKS and Injen? The HKS is like a work of art and the sound is deeper and more distinct than any other exhaust system available. After 5 systems incl the OE my choice is obvious....HKS!

I had the Injen SES TD and now have the HKS Ti TD.
Injen had more of a grunt and V8 tone so to speak. The drone was unbearable. Extremely loud.
HKS has a more clean exotic sound and has no drone. I'd get HKS

see thats weird becuase i think of injen being more exotic and according to the dyno numbers hks gives you what 2 more horsepower seriously i dont feel like paying another 600 or more for 2 horsepower but thats just me we will see what i end up with... im still not sure

F*** HKS and Injen. Get the carbon fiber FAST INTENTIONS w/ high flow cats. Absolute best sounding G35 exhaust ever. Plus u will get a lot of gains with it.

Then go with the Injen, its your car. You could look for a used exhaust like I did and forget about MSRP. HKS...FTW

HKS hands down. The craftsmanship is second to none, and the TI tips are stunning. You get what you pay for. I'd try to find one used in the marketplace right now (I think there's one selling there right now).

Before you make your decision, I highly suggest hearing these exhausts in person, preferably next to each other. Maybe if you go to a local meet, someone will have either of these exhausts or you can ask a fellow member who is local to you to let you hear it. Youtube videos are not high definition enough to reproduce the sounds of these exhausts, with all their nuances that a camcorder can't record, properly/accurately.

Dont listen to these people and reconsider. FAST INTENTIONS only. You won't regret going FI. Ill bow down to you if you get cf FI w/ hfc. This is why...


I kno its a g37 but its going to sound similar.

Combined HKS with Kinetix HFC's and Strup headers with CAI, the sound is .

i have basically looked at exhaust for a good 6 months now and heard just about all of these exhaust you have talked about in person and I really am only torn between hks and injen no offense to the other exhaust they just arent for me.

also i have tried PMing a few guys from the marketplace and none of them seem to want to ship otherwise i would probably have ended up with hks considering how many get sold there.
