Default HKS exhaust

How loud is it? How does it compare to the neuspeed exhaust? What is the lowest price I can purchase it for? Thanks

I have the HKS. Of all of them, I think the sound is aggressive, yet not excessively loud. Comparatively, and boy did I do some listening before I bought it, it's the least obnoxious. I'd say the closest comparative sounding exhaust is the SuperSprint (Tim Ham @ MG Racing is ordering one for someone else right now, if you decide you want one). The Neuspeed is a bit louder, and the Minuni, Amuse, and J's all border on deafening...

There was a gentleman at Laguna with an Amuse R1 exhaust and he did not get black flagged.

Oh, and maybe the SC had something to do with it too
If you ever feel like your car is too loud I will gladly sacrifice my car in trade...

As far as Supersprint exhaust goes... I have never heard anything about them... that could either be good or bad... who knows. I would stick with the HKS, but if I knew where to get one I would never have bought the Mugen in the first place...
