hks exhust

Jadranko · 12-09-2007, 01:47 PM

I wanted to ask if the hks hp exhaust is worth it's money considering sound and hp gain. i am thinking also about the invidia n1 exhaust with test pipe. so which wayis better to go. please let me know.

You might want to talk to this guy...(he's selling a Invdia exhaust)

I know but he says tha is the best exhaust out there. I want to know fro someone that is not selling it. people say it just to sell it u should know it. I am trying to get a independent opinion.

not something anyone can answer for you.

Jadranko · 12-11-2007, 01:59 PM

Is there a dyno reading for both exhausts after they have been put on. That would help.

kgf3076 · 12-11-2007, 03:02 PM

exhaust systems are kind of like spinach, you either like it or you don't. Have you listened to both systems? How much drone do you want to put up with? How many tickets can you afford for overly loud exhaust (the Invidia can be LOUD!)? If you want quality with long life and light weight, get the Mugen Titanium.

I have read that ueg exaust u lose power. are all exhaust petty much he same regarding hp gain and they differ by sound only or is it more than that too it. Why would they differ sometmes by $500
muegen exhaust- 1300
hks 800
invidia-650
so why such a price difference
let me know

Well, normally I'd wait for desmo4 to answer why Mugen is more expensive than the others, but I'll give you a few facts to cogitate on.
1. Mugen is titanium (a bit pricier than stainless steel)
2. Mugen is light (always a good thing)
3. Mugen is built specifically for the S2000, tuned for the S2000 and is an exact replacement for the S2000 exhaust.
4. They're quiet (no tickets) but more free-flowing than the stock exhaust.

Now we can wait for desmo to add even more reasons...

You might also be paying for the name as well, i dont think the exhausts make very much of a HP difference. I would go mugen if i had the money, but ima go HKS, ill let you know what i think in about a week if you want.
