At the motor show this year, Tachbrook Honda were offering HKS exhaust installations. They are based in Birmingham so a bit of a trek but could be worth it if they are competitive on price etc. Not sure on exact price as the person I spoke to was not sure. Others on the forum have HKS fitted so can no doubt throw out other options and price estimates. Was toying with the idea of an HKS exhaust next year so let me know if you get serious about this.

Looks like we are both based in Woking......that's two "S"s in the area now!.

I had an HKS Hiper fitted last week - I got the details of my local supplier/installer from the HKS Europe website here. Follow the link to the European Dealers page and simply find the nearest one to you.

I used Co-ordsport in Dudley. They're part of the group that used to be Ralliart UK and to rally-prepare Mitsubishi Evos. (They still do - they just the official franchise since Mitusibishi has come back into the game directly - so they're well used to Japanese performance cars and did a faultless job on mine).

Haven't stopped smiling since!

EDIT: Just seen Neil's post about Tachbrook which, ironically enough, is my local dealer. But given my experience of the sales staff at the dealership and one their stand at the Motor Show, I decided that I was going to go elsewhere for the exhaust

Mark,

Interesting comment about Tachbrook!. My comment regarding lack of clarity on price stems from the fact that the person on the stand told me I could have an HKS fitted for around

Neil, the technical staff at Tachbrook are fine in my limited experience - they did a good job on my recent 9,000 mile service and the PDU work. But their sales staff are hopeless!

Price? Pretty much wherever you go, you will be quoted the same price for the Hiper -
