He's actually selling it. I'm sure there's good power gains, but he wasn't happy with the tone. Wonder what he's replacing it with.

What about the tone didn't he like about it? It seems alot of people like the HKS sound at first, then get tired of it for some reason. I'm just curious what about it people don't like about it.

I was never crazy about my Perrin cat back on my STi. I though it always sounded too....muffled and you didn't quite hear the unequal length manifold sound subarus are know for. But i just shrugged it off and kept it.

Like the looks of the NISMO, the sound of the HKS is subjective. Some think it sounds exotic while others think it sounds ricey. I for one think it sounds good. Here is his FS thread https://my350z.com/forum/exhaust/350895-feeler-de-hks-ti-hi-power-dual-exhaust.html

The HKS hi-power would be my choice in exhausts as it has everything I want. Looks, power, tips, sound....though, I wouldn't mind something that was similar to stock, but was louder and more aggressive. Also, there was a recent clip of the bassani exhaust that sounded great.
