Had HKS Hi-power installed

Had a shop install it today and it sounds amazing. Only charged $60.00. Deep ,throaty and clean. I only wish they would have used buttonhead screws instead of sockethead for the tips. Thats something I can change. Now my next mod will probaly be the m-rev, and or intake or maybe BOTH

If you add the plenum and intake it will deepin the sound for sure. I love the sound of the HKS. Not sure if headers show any gains on the 06 but if so.. I'd go with headers too for the sound. It's so HOTT

Congrats on your new HKS install. Shoot, if I could have had mine installed for $60.00, I wouldn't have bothered with it. That's an excellent price! Hehehe . . . Enjoy the new Beast from down under.

Now, there will be no stopping you. You're off to "Mod Hell."

It is not too loud. If your just cruising around and keeping her under 3 grand it is not that loud. BUT put your windows down, drop it down a gear or two and YYYYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!!! Music to my ears. No raspiness. Under Marketplace, Vendor there you will find Intencepower. Price is in there.

When it was delivered to work yesterday I couldnt wait untill friday to install it. So I called a couple of muffler shops and one said $150, $160 etc. Then I called Richards Peformance Muffler in Oceanside and he said $60-$80. Ended up only $60. Great guys, Great install! I think the only mods I have left (of course FI some day), are intake, M-rev and MAYBE cats. Do you feel cats are worth it?
