I've tried searching..
Does anyone have any clips or audio notes of the Hks hi-power + PPE headers?
Any feedback?

Raspy sounds like CRAP!

If you run Hi-Flow cats then its not too bad

yea i was thinking of running PPE, HFC's, MAYBE a midpipe (if no midpipe then just a straight pipe from the second cats back, so removing cats after o2 sensors and resonator) to my HKS

I'm going ppe headers to stock mid pipe with secondary cats to tanabe next month. I think that should be a good sound without being obnoxiously loud. I've done obnoxious loud in the past, trying to restrain myself with my Lexus.

No rasp on my set-up (PPE + stock mid + HKS) - I only hear the HKS. If you add a midpipe to the mix, it will get raspy and loud (especially the Invidia).
