hey guys, i am going to purchase a hks Hi Power 409 exhaust. However, i am worrying that it might be a fake one. How can I distinguish whether it is real or fake?
Thx for advice

Good choice I have the HKS Hi-power single and absolutly love it!....And why do you think the one you are getting is a knock off?...If its fake then it wont say "HKS Hipower" on the inside part of the muffler. Mine angles up and outwards a bit and the HKS badge is on the inside of the tip...it's easily visable from up close.

Here you can see the engraved HKS-sign on the tips and the plates on the underside of the canister.

How loud is this exhaust? It sounds phenomenal in the sound clips I've heard but I don't want to atract the cops either, here in socal they're quite a pain in the ass when it comes to exhausts.

Also, any dronning?

Thanks

The HKS Hi-Power is very quiet, at idle it's very near stock; and when rev it gives a nice sound. I have one and very happy with it.

It is very quite at idle, and has an amazing sound throughout the entire rpm range. This is one of the very best sounded exhaust you can put on your s2000 IMO...I got the single, because the dual is known to actually lose a few HP...With the single you get the same amazing sound and pick up a few ponies to boot
