Default OH NO!! Not Another "WHAT IS THE DEEPEST EXHAUST THREAD" *HKS VIDEO INSIDE*

Ok, I long time ago I posted a video (about year and half ago) about my single custom HKS Carbon Fiber Titanium exhaust. I get lots of PM's all the time "Where's that video". So I finally decided to bring it back from the dead.

Here is my 3" piping custom HKS exhaust... SOUNDS so much better now that I have other mods, when I did this video I only had the exhaust.

Anyhow ENJOY!

AMAZING!!!!! so nice perfect sound! now for the questions... .im planning on this exact exhaust... but here are my questions

1. do you have a ypipe? i have ordered the gruppe-s ypipe with 2.5 in piping, with a 3in outlet... so i should be fine with that?

2. are you running testpipes? im planning on kinetix resonated...

3. is the piping mandrel bent?

4. Do you have a resonater in line with the piping?

TIA

Ok, this video is about a year and a half old... Since then i have changed my setup. So I will answer your questions accordingly.

1.Yes, I have a Y pipe and let me tell you the sound is different, A LOT MORE DEEPER!! But the video shown here does not have a Y pipe it is the STOCK one. So, I will make a new video soon later... The only difference is that my Y pipe is welded to my cat back system.

2.NO, I did run them before and the sound is ricey and LOUD! Didn't like it so I changed it out in less than a week.

3. Yes, the piping was mandrel bent.

4. Yes, I do have a resonator inline check the picture belows to see my current setup






If anybody wants this setup we can make it for you and sell it. Of course instead of being welded to the Y pipe their would be a Flange. You can PM me for pricing, again this is mandrel bent using HKS Carbon Titanium muffler. I have sold a few systems already here on this board. Sounds A LOT BETTER with the Y Pipe and of course LIVE in person.

i think it was custom piping using a titanium/cf hks muffler... probably cheaper to get this done then get one of the aftermarket exhausts on the market

I would have never of thought this would sound so good. I will be sending you a PM on pricing. Couple of questions if you dont mind.
What shop is doing these?
I am in the Los Angeles area, can the same shop install? or is it a one man business?
by now I know catbacks don't do much but does this system allow for a better flowing exhaust? (going FI later on) diameter of piping? Or is it just for sound.

I have these made from a professional muffler shop, he has a JIG made for this model so he makes them at my request. I have a warehouse in Fountain Valley, this system with the Y pipe Generated 11rwhp. Keep in mind the exaust is 3" and made for TURBO! so a turbo car should feel like heaven! I will PM YOU WITH PRICING

Guys, I will be working on this video soon thanks for your patience.. This video will be very detailed and also have runs with the silencer (sold seperately) which makes the car SUPER QUIET!! This is a major bonus for those who don't want a super loud car and but want performance. Actually, for some reason the car pulls harder lower end with the silencer (backpressure) but suffers on top. While open exhaust is fast top end. Anyhow, i'll keep you guys posted!
