I guess its more for the sound. Last time i checked stillen produced the most gains over everyone, yet noone rocks them due to the sound or the weight. I wish there was a exhuast out there that dyno'd true with numerous people getting similar results. and sounded good. HKS from what i seen sounds like sex but is a minute man when it comes to performance . lol. Now only if i can find out what they have in the attked Z so i can seew what exhuast there using. lmao
i dunno about "minute man when it comes to performance". im dynoing 268@rwhp with hks ehaust, 5/16 spacer, crawford hfc, ur crank pulley, pop charger, and ts reflash. baseline was 236

yea thats a nice number but , um with all ur mods its hard to say what was the biggest improvement , at all. From ur base line did u then re dyno with the hks. If not then the numbers are not valid to back up anything persay u had a megan exhaust feel me. Im not hating i love the way it looks and sounds but the hp. I mean just like song says were the cash at. Where the hp at? Some people dyno 5 hp with the hks. So the search for the perfect exhuast is not hks until we get some good common gains. I see manuft dyno sheets all the time but where are the independant dynos. ? Besides what that sports mag did showing stillen and borla pretty much dominant . Is anything else close or better hp to quality wise. ? aam,svrt,helix,joe blow ? i personally live the jic ti single as well as well as the aam td exhuast but im afraid of the gains area with them. They may be nominal but hey when ur spending that cah u want the best for ur $

+1

I'd tend to agree that with the amount of mods on your car, the best performance gain came from the reflash.

Good choice! they even have pictures to explain why dual & xpipe are better!

Dual pipes expand exhaust volume and increase exhaust flow rate and smoother exhaust current.

Stock standard single pipe layout cause unstable exhaust pressure



That explaination is worth $1500 alone.

Actually I think its the rarity that draws me into it. Unless somebody sells me their agency power exhaust, I might just go with the 5zigen.

Thats the problem with this post. The guy said he has bought the exhaust and will post pics and info on it when he gets it installed. In the mean time this topic has just been going on and on about everyones opinions from knock off exhausts, Evo2's ,breast augmentation, Acura NSX, Ferrari F350, Honda Civics etc etc.

The exhaust is still sitting on my floor, untouched since I got it. My digital camera is fried, and unless someone wants to buy me one for christmas, shut up and wait. I will get pics up as soon as I can. Otherwise, find something else to complain about.

Yeah. I found a Agency power exhaust instead so I guess no 5zigen for me.
