DIY: HKS Hi-Power install
HKS Hi-Power exhaust system D.I.Y Install
The Car
Stock exhaust
Start by removing the lower stab. bar
Then loosen up where the exhaust meets the cat
Loosen up the hanger aswell
unmount the exhaust, you will need 2 people for this
Parts
Mount the mid pipe of the HKS on the hanger and position flange provided
Bolt up and tighten
install hardware and flange at the end of the mid pipe
Mount the second piece of the HKS insert flange and bolts
tighten up hardware
since i have the VeilSide Ver.1 lip kit i had to more or less check if it would comprimise the rear lip
install hangers on exhaust and mount them, try using some lube to get them in
Now apply flange and hardware to connect the canisters to the rest of the exhaust and tighten
Re-install the factory stab. bar and your done
Final product
Manufactured 8/29/06

Great write up! Any little tips? How does the exhaust sound when it's brand new? Does it change any once it gets broken in? I should be getting my HKS soon, but will not have a lift for the install. How did everything match up? Good fitment?

nice DIY. i find it easier to bolt the whole exhaust together and just install it as one piece just like the stock exhaust.
