Greddy doesn't make headers as far as I know, so check your sources. It would cost around 500-600 US dollars at a US shop. Gains are good, 15-20 whp with torque through out the power band

would be good to get a soundclip of your system with its HFC's. Ill try and get a clip of mine at somepoint for comparison, as if i could loose some of the rasp but keep it exotic sounding id be a happier camper. . . .

This is the same combo I want to throw on my car. Fuji catback and Y-pipe with ulitmate racing HFCs.

Question about the fujitsubo catback: Besides the materials used(stainless steel vs Ti), what other differences are there between the Legalis R and the Ti one? Weight is one but what about power and dimensions?

Nice exhaust!

Okay, I found out that they are DC Sport Headers. Do anyone have any experience with these and HFC'S?

Ahhhh **** it! I talked the shop that does some heavier mechanical work on my car. They told me it will cost $700-800 cdn to install these DC Sport headers, and that they have a history of cracking at the flanges. Not worth the headache to me, especially if they break some time down the line. I'll just stick with the HFC's, which should be here in 2 weeks. It took Z1 Performance FOREVER to get back to my shop about ordering my cats!

Regarding the length of the tips, could they be cut about 3/4" ? Or would they begin to rust?

I ordered mine and I'm wondering if I'l like the tips sticking out so much :?

Okay, I have an update. I finally got my HFC's installed. Totally worth the wait. Probably the most noticable mod I've done so far. Makes my exhaust have a much more full and exotic sound. Power delivery is so much smoother, you can definitely tell that the stock cats are the most restrictive part of the exhaust system.

Check with them if the one Cracked is a Z Headers not a Honda or others, haven`t hear any bad comments about the DC, this is not made in China its made in America

P.S: i`m so sure you will find another shop will charge you less for the install.

You have any sound clips with the HFC's installed and the car free-revving and, more importantly, with the engine actually under load? (i.e. drive by, take off, accelerating and cruising on the highway, etc.). I also have the fujitsubo system and JIC y-pipe and I have been considering HFC's, just not sure how it will sound. Thanks in advance!

Sorry Man, I don't have the time or the equipment to do that. Just do it, trust me, you won't regret it!

I'm telling ya, man. JUST DO IT! This is probably one of the mods i'm most happy with. I don't know if it's because it helped the flow of all my other "breathing" mods, but damn it sounds sooo sweet! And the way it accelerates and rev's now is so addicting. I'm gonna lose my license soon.
