Are you talking about the hi-power that is dual? HKS only makes 2 exhaust for the S2000. Both our known not to give HP gain, but rather just weight reduction and the sound, looks, etc.

As for the header, i dont think anyone on the boards have ever dyno'd an HKS header. It's a really rare header in the US since it's only marketed to the Japanese

never heard of an HKS header.

on the exhaust--although people say it loses power, i don't think that anyone that has the exhaust has ever reported that for sure. myself and most of the other people i know with this exhaust (many) felt a gain from the butt dyno.

make sure you get a new version HKS Hi-Power because according to the vendor i bought mine from, they remedied the rust problem that was prevalent among the older ones.

The HKS exhaust should be banned from existence.

I don't think the hks silent is sold in the US.

I love my HKS hi-power. Sounds good and doesn't look lame. The resonance around 3k rpm is a bit tiring, but you get used to it. Power feels about the same as the stock exhaust. If there's a gain or loss, I can't tell.

I think it's a totally cosmetic exhaust. Basically a fancy noise-maker.

If you want power, get a test pipe for $110 and call it a day.
