HKS vs INJEN

OK so I am on the verge of making my final decision on which exhaust to go with.

To tell you the truth I like them both and am quite torn...

I also plan on adding berk hfc to whichever exhaust i choose..

I have always liked injen, but thats just me. What other mods do you plan on doing? I am guessing you like the sound of both tones?

well Injen comes first with me when it comes to tone but then hks has slight better gains and it definitely has a good sound but changes the vq sound a little to much

Just listened to a few G35 Injen Exhaust clips on youtube. Not feeling the Raspy and Drone sound. Like a loose rock in the exhaust or something . haha

I like the deep growl of the stock exhaust better.

Yeah same with me I am trying to figure out which to get as well, but I mean the HKS HI power seems really nice but the price is up there compared to the injen. I like to try to keep it all one brand as much as possible you know intake, etc. So if your looking for more power then I would get HKS plus theres a lot more additional mods with HKS s/c, internals, etc. If your thinking more about just the sound and maybe not so much into power then Injen either one is a nice system I think when ever I do get a system I think I will go with the HKS after looking at it all again.

what rasp? you need to hear it in person youtube doesnt represent any exhaust correctly i would never make my decision based the recordings of a cheap microphone on a cheap camera.. sorry ive heard in person and rasp is not there.

Well it looks like you made up your mind.

I've search through several youtube clips. All of them had a rapsy sound in the video. I did the same search for the Stock G35 exhaust. No raspy sound. But hey, it's your car your money. Do as you please.
