I am buying the Hks high power exhaust soon and i am going to throw on some test pipes while im at it what will sound good with the hks? I want something that sounds deeper with low rasp.. What is everyone using with the Hks? Any suggestions?

 

resonated if your looking for least amount of rasp.

 

any specific brands that i should lean towards?

 

Have you looked at Fast Intentions resonated test pipes?

 

i will have to take a look at them, thanks

 

will i lose performance with resonated pipes?

 

I dont think so^^^

 

where can i get these pipes at i checked most of the sponsors and i cant find em>>>

 

fastintentions.com i believe. I have their HFC's that I loved but got to sell as Im going TT

 

definitely check out the Fast Intentions RTP's, I've got them on my car with the HKS exhaust. Just call directly to order them, they had them shipped out like an hour after I called in my order.

 

not a significant loss, maybe a little slower at the low end of the rpms.

 

thanks everyone!

 

is there a big diff between resonated and test pipes as far as performance?

 

Keep it simple. Empty test pipes. Nothing inside to fall apart. Nothing inside to rattle.

 

how do these helix pipes sound, i just noticed the fast intentions are pretty expensive..

 

These helix I got from a vendor for 125 shipped and I am putting them in today. I have heard nothing but good reviews from people. I will let you know by tom most likely.

 

Helix will sound like any other non-resonated test pipe. With your HKS, it will be loud, deep in tone, and farty and raspy when you get on it, but I love mine I have an HKS with Helix tp's. Resontated will sound almost the same, without as much rasp.

 

+1

 

Go for Berk Test Pipes. Inexpensive, yet better quality, reliability, and customer service than the rest. Please don't pay $250+ for hollow tubes. These aren't HFCs.

 

DO NOT GET TEST PIPES. it will ruin your exhaust literally and your hks will be a waste. i say get hi flow cats. ive got the hks with res test pipes and it sounds AWESOME but there is rasp at the top. i havent heard it with hfcats but ive been thinking about switching to see if it keeps it just as loud but gets rid of the rasp. i got mine for 150 shipped from intensemotorsports.com but look for a used set, because theres no reason to buy new unless you want to lose when you part
