Default My New HKS Custom Exhaust

Well I bought the HKS Carbon Titanium Muffler from my buddy. I had it installed yesterday and finally got around to uploading pics today. Currently it is all stock piping they hacked up the catback so it would fit. The shop CIN in Charlotte is going to be doing a custom 3inch for me when I go boost in the next month or two. Until then I am in love with how it sounds its a lot deeper than stock. I am going with the Turbonetics kit thats why I am only going with a single route.

Love the sound, but I like dual exhausts better than single tube ones. Enjoy in great health.

I really like this exhaust. I was thinking at first to maybe do a custom dual with two of these HKS CF Tit exhausts but at the end decided not to.

Man.. I'd say you needed to get wheels first

I love the exhaust though. Doesn't look right with a totally stock car though.

Im going for a sleeper look. I dont plan on putting wheels on anytime soon. Im probably going to just lower it and maybe powdercoat the stock ones and that will be about it visual wise for now

Haha...no worries, I assumed it was based on your screenname.

Oh and the exhaust sounds nice and mellow. I like it. Just wished it didn't stick out as much as it looks like from the side angle (first picture).

Yeah, something doesn't look right with the placement. Honestly, my first reaction was "oh, no!". From the top it doesn't look like itn sticks out too far. From the side though, it looks like it is sits down too far.

I don't get the whole ghetto welding the muffler to the stock piping.

That huge single exhaust is about as far as you can get from being a sleeper.
