exhaust comparisons
Only thing I can say is that I have the HKS Hi-Power and I LOVE the sound that it produces. It may be a little loud if you're only used to hearing stock, but if you're looking for a more aggressive deep tone w/o hurting your ears then I'd suggest this one!
I got mine (Mugen) for USD 1770 shipped directly from Mugen Power in Japan.
People say it is excessive as far as price goes, but all I can say is - you get what you pay for. It comes with its own rubber mounting brackets etc. to ensure a perfect fit!

The HKS Hi-Power is deep. Very deep. It sounds awesome. I can't quote any power gains, whatsoever. But then again, none of these are for making power. It certainly isn't any slower though. I would recommend it to anyone. I've got two vids in a few other posts.

The search engine here bites and I'm not sure I'd find anything if I did a search. Thanks.
Well if you want a deep grumbling tone the invidia is the one to get but you have to ask yourself if you can live with the drone. However, it does come with silencers and that gets rid of most of the noise making it relitivly quiet.
The other exhausts listed are also known for the deep exhaust notes but invidia being the loudest, that gives it the deepest tone.
As far as the HKS (I don't want to start a war thread) but lots of people have said it has lost upwards of 15hp. Now I have never seen a dyno of this but with all the threads saying it does loose power, why risk it?
Did I mention the invidia is the cheapest of them at coming in at 600 shipped. The fuji follows coming in at 850 I believe.

I think people had a bad experience with the first gen HKS S2000 exhaust. I can't remember its name... Hi-something.
850 sounds about right for the HKS as well.

Any views on the ARC titanium? People in UK never have them so bought one VERY cheap but not fitted it yet!

Mugen is great look and sound, looks almost stock but sounds great!
Fujits is a sweet one too, but its very bling lookin from the back.. depends what your lookin for I guess
