NEED HELP Experts and not so experts

Not a really complex question but I figured some of you guys would either (a) Have first hand experience in this or (b) no some one who has.

Okay, Ehaust HKS Hyper or Blitz Nur Spec? Heres what I am looking for. Deep, okay I know it's a V-6, not ricey aggressive sound. I will be running the exhaust with out the silencer with Xerd stainless steel headers and race pipe. There will also be a SRT intake. Oh yeah it's a 2nd. gen. GS300.

Also tell me what you think about the kit set up I will get. Wald body kit. L-sportline trunk spoiler. TRD carbon grille. Ab-Flug coolong hood. Ab-Flug aero mirrors. And Ab-Flug roof spoiler.

Oh yeah one more item. 20x11 rear. I know 20x10.5 work. Anyone knows someone who has fitted 20x11 rear?

I know some of this stuff should have been posted in "other places" but it's so general and it all pertains to the beloved Bubble GS

Regarding the exhaust, I have the HKS, and I love it. Nice DEEP sound. Should be similiar on a gs300, can't be too much of a difference. On WOT the sound will turn heads

. From inside the car you will defintately hear the exhaust tone on any RPM, takes a little getting used to but after I have it on my car for a couple months, I don't think I can drive my car WITHOUT the sound.

Also, a 20x10.5 will work? From what I gathered on here it should rub?

I think the Blitz is designed for GS400, different piping, might not fit on a GS300 though. on the side note, they are both, on the "louder" side of the exhausts, and V6 sounds more high pitched than v8's low rumbles, make sure you are clear on that

as for wheels, 20x 10.5 is very pushing it, and requirse serious fender modification, the 11 is nice, but imo you will rub with/without fender rolled. Sure it looks sweet, but imo not worth the hassle. Inner tires will wear out very fast due to the camper as well. 10 is a safe bet.

I had both and I really like the HKS for the GS300. The Blitz was a lot louder then the HKS and there was more droning with the Blitz. I get a lot more compliments w/ the HKS and the way it's sounds. With the Blitz, I lost a lot of low end hp but with the HKS, I didn't feel like I lost any low end hp. I hope that helps.

When you mean louder are we talking about similar tone but LOUDER or talking different tone and ricey loud.
