probably one of the best sounding exhausts i've ever heard coming from an hks legamax exhaust. I got a chance to hear it on zoomzooms car. too bad it was never put into production.

I don't know if it was because the video was recorded in a underground parking lot or something but that is the sexiest sounding exhaust in my opinion.

I'm sure if the right shop got a hold of one (or if an owner offered) it could be duplicated, it is in the end only metal.

Can we get the guy that has this exhaust to have someone duplicate it and pay his a small fee or something? This is the only exhaust that gets my attention.

AAM is working on a very similar exhaust. I doubt they are copying the Helix as they don't follow the rotary buzz much, but they do know how to build exhausts. Sounds just as good if not better. I'll post some sound clips. I have started talking to them about setting up a group buy for these as soon as they come out. Just a matter of talking to the mods and having AAM finish it up. The one on my car in the pics is a prototype.

They work pretty hard over there, but if you have any questions about it, I can answer them.
