The best exhaust AFTER HKS hi power?!?!!?!

Since it seems like everyone here is waiting for the gad damn HKS boat to get here, i have been thinking about another set up. What do you guys think the next best set up is? I like the look of the injen but want the performance of the stillen. What do you guys think?

Today, I decided on a Stillen Dual Path Exhaust as my second option. My HKS seems to be lost at sea somewhere.

Oh, btw . . . The Stillen Lifetime Warranty is a plus, as well.

Nothing is better then Hks in my opinion, but Stillen is a good choice, if you want Injen i will sell you mine.

Depends on your needs. I had the HKS. Sold it because it wasn't a true dual. The look was cool at first, but it got old pretty quickly. The look was cool at first, but it does look a little cheap with the large mufflers. The tips are "TI".. more of a look thing than anything. I did like the sound though.. It wasn't loud driving normally, prob the best part about it.

My next choices would prob be Nismo/Fuji/Apex WS. That's because they all sound similar... and tend to be on the softer side of the droning and sound. The WS was my pick because the tips looked closest to stock. The sound with the TN kit is amazing (after watching MIAPLAYA's vids)

If you were looking for the 2 can look, the Injen would be cool.

Anyone here using the Tanabe touring medallion. I've heard alot of good feedback on those exhaust systems. They look and sound great.

The Touring Medal? No.. But I know a few people here have the Super Hyper Medallion. Lotta the TN G guys have been installing em.

The SHM is louder and has bigger tips than the ones I suggest up there.

The Pro1 is pretty sweet too, Can't go wrong with 3" and price. Just a bit too loud for my taste and I'm trying to sway away from the double can look.

I have the SMH and like it.....originally gonna go with Fuji but it was backordered and didnt want to wait so went with Tanabe...happy with my choice....

...the Touring Medallion, which drsifu has, is the quieter version of the SMH....and the Touring's tips are alil smaller too for a cleaner look......
