IS-F owners with HKS SSM
Just wondering if anyone in the Vancouver area has this exhaust. I'm hoping to hear it in person before I decide to go this route. Thanks guys.

Hey bud, i happen to purchase the HKS exhaust as soon as i get my GoPro cam back i would gladly make a vid of the exhaust tone just axle back, when i get my PPE headers install would make another vid after, then debating what to do with the mid-pipe. But i'll be making few videos with every set i go with to hear the difference. This is what it looks like underneath

hey guys sorry for the late Video. been really busy with work and my son but i managed to make a short video of a cold start and a few short revs. not the best video but you get the idea of how it sounds just the Axle back. waiting to get my PPE headers installed and a midpipe.

Sounds awesome man. Thanks for keeping us up to date. I noticed you're looking for the original HKS mid pipe. I'm running it except the resonator was cut out by the last owner. I can tell you it still sounds amazing though. Maybe slightly more raw compared to your video.

You're welcome bro. glad i can chime in with some videos. Next would be what to do with the midpipes if i cant come across the HKS midpipe. i saw a 3" midpipe section for our car on Ebay, but i dont know if i should go 3" or stay 2.5" in pipe diameter. Here's a link to how it looks.

Thanks man but I've already bought the HKS last year . Come out to the next meet though; wouldn't mind hearing a Joe Z.

$620 seems a bit steep. I would probably stay with 2.5" just to reduce drone. I don't believe you'll gain any performance with 3". Also, If you don't need your oem mid pipe, I'd bring it to a shop and have them cut out the cats and resonator. Might be the cheapest option and you'll achieve the same thing. My HKS mid pipe with resonator removed sounds very similar to the link in post #2.
