Injen ses dual exhaust vs hks knockoff

Hey guys, i found this guy on craigslist selling his used injen ses dual exhaust for 550, and i wanted to know if it would be better to buy this exhaust as opposed to a new hks knockoff exhaust which is sold for around the same price.. I like the sound of the injen, but im worried its not loud enough since i want a loud *** exhaust. If anyone has heard the injen in person, id love to know how loud it really is. Anyway, any advice is much appreciated, thanks!

lol please delete your driver account before your flamed on. I have the Injen Track exhaust and it sounds great for me. If you want a loud exhaust pick up a civic and run open pipe... but dont ruin a great car with your mentality

Injen sounds amazing... Just get test pipes or high flow cats with the injen and ur set. Much better buy than a knockoff.

Since when does having a loud exhaust ruin a g35? I'm a ****ing teenager for christ sake, not some old washout who needs a silent exhaust to go with my "luxury" vehicle. Telling people to delete their accounts is both immature and completely unnecessary. Look, I never said I wanted a civic sounding exhaust, I just want an exhaust that's louder than stock. You say I'm going to get flamed for asking a simple question, but it's people like you who can't answer threads without some smart *** remark that need to delete their accounts. What do you gain by comparing my car to a civic when in reality I still have a g35 and I will still get a loud exhaust for it?

Either exhaust would be good, I have the HKS knockoff, and I have no complaints about it. Aside from the fitment, the exhaust sounds really nice and I've gotten compliments for it. Best bet would be for you to hear the exhaust sounds on YouTube!

I think the hks knockoff is cheaper then that on eBay. I'm also thinking of buying one soon. Can't decide if I want art pipes with stock exhaust or hks with art pipes lol.

I am running the Injen catback with megan test pipes. It drones under 2700PRM but besides that, It sounds great.

Best advice I can give you is to listen to them in person. I personally would not buy the HKS knock off.

Best advice thus far, attend a few meets in your area and listen to different systems in person....vids are a waste of your time they're only as good as the Target equipment used to record them. Regardless of which exhaust system you choose HFCs will make it louder. I'd chose the Injen before some knockoff POS!

Its purely what you want and what you can afford.

Watch the VIDS here and if possible join some awesome meets here to hear it in person.

If you can afford it dont go with the knockoffs...

If you cant afford it then you have no choice.. LOL

If you can save a bit more as not to buy the replica stuff then do so...

I found a very good deal for the HKS Knockoffs and I like the sound of it ( including the drone ) so I got it and had it installed....
