Default Custom HKS carbon Ti single exhaust built

********UPDATE******


Well I got my custom exhaust made today, and it looks and sounds awesome. I couldnt be happier with the results and I feel a huge increase is power. I have yet to install my japtix y-pipe or my UR HFC's. Currently I have the megan y-pipe on with stock cats. I have lots of pictures but they are from my phone. I will try to get a sound clip up asap, love the way the exhaust growls, and there is no rasp what so ever. I made a straight midpipe with out a resonator and got some piping welded to the muffler. I angled the tip a bit to show off the carbon fiber and I think it looks good. Also did the bumper tuck to flow with the single more.

Oh yeah I ended up going with 3" piping. Enjoy


also have my invidia N1 exhaust and megan y-pipe for sale. I loved the way this exhaust sounded also but it was time for a change.

That's why you resize them to the right size, then warn them 56k users to go **** it.
