I agree, the HKS with test pipes is borerline rice. I will eventually man up and spend some cash on the HFCs.

I like the way my FI exhaust sounds... At first I thought it was too loud with the HFCs, but that was probably because I only had the stock exhaust to compare it to.

Granted it's still very loud under WOT, but how often is that really necessary. It does tend to drone a bit at highway cruising speed, but I can still have a normal conversation inside without raising my voice.

Another factor to consider is that this is not my daily driver, so I don't have to put up with the sound during my daily commute if I choose not to.
