hey me and a fellow my.is member are going to trade his HKS hi-power exhuast for my stock plus $$$$$... what i need to know is about how big of a box do i need (inchs = length, width, and height) and about the average total weight of the box (LBS)...

when you guys recieved your hks exhausts, how did it come in?? separate boxs or one big box?? please let me know asap because this needs to go from california to miami and the stock exhaust from miami florida to california.....

 

The stock exhaust is really big, and would probably cost hundreds to ship. The only way you'll be able to ship the OEM exhaust is if you either A) build a huge crate, or B) cut it into pieces (like the HKS exhaust).

 

Here's a picture. The stock exhaust is in one big piece, and the HKS (also pictured) is in 3 pieces.

 

Here's another pic.

 

i can easily get a box to fit that but its gonna be huge... i get boxes that fit M5 exhausts..... i work at BMW

 

either that or i can bubble/seranish type wrap it and ship it like that...

 

ya, you'll need a reallly big box, i had to get my friend with a RSX to come get my exhaust for me when i installed my tanabe cause it wouldnt fit in my car. after shipping n the money ur going to put up as extra, it might be more worth it to find a local seller and pick up a hks from him. or...ROAD TRIP! haha good luck man

 

just send it out on a freight truck on a pallet or something large enough. probably cost about 100$ and less chance for it to get damaged.

 

Im not sure it cost $100 for shipping.. I bet the box is huge and it could be probably around $150... The weight is heavy and the size is huge..

 

whats the length from tip to tip and the width from muffler to muffler cause im trying to see what size box i need

 

I used to ship exhaust systems.. and it would run about $40-$50 on the average to ship .. I got boxes from U-Line .. but I think they are bulk purchases only..

 

ship grayhound, will get there quick, cheaper than any other option and tracking numbers and insurance. Simple to deal with.

 

I just measured mine. It is about 48" long (axle to tips), 54" wide (muffler to muffler), and 9" tall.

 

how much is the approx weight... the fedex guy told me hes gonna hook me up with his discount today at work so all i need is the measurements n weight...

 

It's about 50 lbs.
