Fujitsubo VS. HKS Hi-Power.

hey guys im in the market for purchasing a new exhaust but just have no idea which to go with between the two. i am stuck right in the middle.

- i originally wanted the fujitsubo becuz i hear the quality of the welds in these exhausts are just superior and grade A. i also like that this exhaust doesnt give off a annoying drone and is way too quiet from what alot of people here say.
- the hks on the other hand looks very nice with the titanium tips. but it is a bit too big but eh wells. I hear the exhaust sounds nice but how nice is it? i dont want nothing too annoyingly insanely loud and i do not want drone.

i donno please help me with your guys input!

yeah exactly. i want to be able to hear them in person too but i just dont have that much time to spare to go to meets and what not. im just trying to do the best i can with personal inputs from other board members.

the fuji tips are clean and simple but toooo simple?

yes

not too big

neither of these exhausts drone. both sound nice, but different. hks is a bit more mean sounding, and also looks better. when people are driving behind you, they can see the dual canisters running back.

basically decide if you want a dual or Y pipe exhaust, how mean you want it to sound, and most of all, what kind if look you want.

i think you can spare an hour or two to go to a meet before you dropk 1k+ in an exhaust.

personally I didn't like the HKS tone, it wasn't as deep as I expected, so I'd go with Fujits
