wow that does sound/look very nice indeed!
now i dont know if i want borla or HKS...
decisions, decisions...

I see it's the "HKS Hi-Power" version and just wondering what is the size of the piping/tip?? assuming around 2.5" piping/3.0 tip"??

its 2.56 piping, and 3" tip i believe

i love the exhaust but if ur a sedan owner u may want to either extend the piping 1" or put some kinda of heat shield on the bumper so it wont turn color or melt, right now i havent seen anything just its reallly hot, so im going to get a custom heat shield carbon fiber for it

Great video. What was the total cost, and the total time to install. Everything was included ?

exhaust was like 500 and some change, i got it as a gift from my gf, as for install it took about 4 hours on and off, cuz my friend had to leave for an hour and half, it took us awhile, the stock exhaust was just being a pain in the ass

Ive got the same one, do you get the loud shift pops too at higher rpms?

I love those.
