New HKS Hi Power Single Out Exhaust Installed!
#30
Don't mesh the right side hole. leave it as it is. Also check the left side exhaust shroud. you may have a hole burned through it from the exhaust gases escaping the oval hole that allows you to adjust the tip lenght.
its a great exhaust for the money and sounds Damned Sexy!
sounds better with a turbo in front of it......

Be sure not to extend the tip too much. That problem stated about with burning the shrouds is true. It didn't melt it but I do see a spot of discoloration where the hole lines up at. It's nothing you notice unless you're looking at the underside but I could see it posing a bigger problem if you drive longer than 20 minutes at a time. I'm letting it cool down tonight at work and then I'm going to retract it back so it closes the gap where you adjust it to keep the fumes from melting the shroud. If you don't get what I'm talking about, you will when you get the exhaust and tip in.

it'll sound super loud.... you-> <-cop... got pulled over 7x for that kind of setup, and i'm just shifting at 3.5k-4k, just driving normal... i got away 6x for it, telling them that i broke my oem exhaust and that i ordered my oem at mazda and it should come next week... it never fails, until the 7th cop pulled me over, and it turned out that he was one of the cop that pulled me over and throw the same reason, sadly i gave him the exact same reason 5 mos. ago... now i'm hella stock... ... that's my wonderful story... yeay!!!

Haha, I just did a two hour drive each way with this exhaust and my SR motor sports non resonated catless midpipe. It is loud to say the least. Even after I get the BHR pipe in I will likely still have a resonator welded in. The weight difference is amazing though.

No way 9HP, the biggest gain is weight savings. An update for me is that I got the BHR pipe in and the combo sounds great. The HKS with my SR pipe was way too loud but the BHR quiets really nicely.
