I was interested in this exhaust but i havent seen any feedback (according to the search) about how it performs. Im in a tossup between an exhaust that will perform for possible FI in the future, but i dont want something extremely loud nor having a "pumpkin shooter" stickin out my bumper. The hks setup looks to be a smaller canister style with a straight thru design. I really dont want a baffled muffler that restricts alot of flow........... but i dont want something real loud.

I will be using a catalytic converter ( i have to keep it legal ) and i will be using a comptech tig header with the 2.25 collector. I noticed the hks hi-power for the gsr has 55mm piping which is basically 2.25........ thanx in advanced

I have one of my 91 teg.....only downside is the 2nd resinator sits about 2-3''s from the ground..other then that its SUPER quiet and worth the cash

 

its quiet? i always assumed that it would b fuken loud. i myself might get a Hayame

 

thanx for the input guys........ anyone else?

its SUPER quiet....garentee the hayame is louder

 

How bout peformance wise? I noticed its only 55mm instead of the 60mm piping in the apexi WS and RSR exmag..........

Also how big is the muffler? i mean is it a huge coffee can or smaller than the norm? thanx for the help dude........

 

I have the 3" axle back titaniunm cannister...with custom 3" straight pipe...to my surprise w/ a turbo set up it is pretty quiet. It is quieter than my 2.5 inch catback before the turbo....it has a very deep and low tone...dosnt really sound like a honda to me...i dont have any dyno results with it because my motor is gettin rebuilt now but i really like it...the cannister on the axle back its really big tho so it cant be angled the greatest...i dont know about a 3" catback for integras...

 

i have the all motor version and i love it. It is quiter then the n1 and it sounds a lot nicer.

 

thanx guys........ any more out there running this?

im still kinda worried bout the 55mm but im not doing a totally wild NA ........... keeping it simple for now........

 

anybody have pics of this exhaust on a dc2?

i cant believe nobody else is running this exhaust......... i may take a gamble and go with it........

 

I doubt there would be much of a difference in performance between a canister exhaust and one with a muffler, like the Ex Mag. What would matter more would be pipe diameter. I'd probably go with the Ex Mag as it does have 60mm as opposed to the HKS's 55, and the Ex mag is also supposed to be the quietest exhaust on the market.

 

this is true....... im going to look harder at the exmag......... thanx dude

 

i just got mine in a few days ago. I got like one of the last ones because they discontinued my model 4 door civic. i will be putting it on today hope it goes well.... we'll have to see

i just think it's kinda f weird they only make certain parts for my car... they make a turbo manifold but no turbo.. how stupid

 

I had mine now for 6 months and it sounds really deep and not high pitch
like the APEX n-1. it's worth getting and you will be pleased

 

well the exhuast has been on and ran a bit... sounds great not all loud and "farty" a nice deep sounds goes well with my intake... sounds "vtec" but is only single.... oh well good investment i'd have to say

 

I had one on my 7th gen civic. LOVED it! It is a great exhaust. I was disappointed to discover that this particular exhuast for the DC2 runs the pipe under the LCA. And with how low I think my car is going to be, there would only be a matter of a few inches space between the exhaust pipe and the ground. I wouldnt want to spend that much on an exhaust only to have it damaged from road rash within a couple weeks.
Just my $0.02.

 

Very nice system, i found there to be a extremely noticable difference both low and top end. And has a nice meallow scream.

 

I have this system. GREAT sound. Pretty damn quiet too. I noticed the most difference in my mid to high rpm's. Love it... would trade it for the world...

do you have this on a teg? im thinking of going turbo so the piping may be a bit too small for me........ i never thought it would be this hard to decide on an exhaust!

i might just pick up a spoon n1 axle back since i already have an aftermarket b-pipe.......

 

well i dont know about the performance part of the hi- poer but i do know the sound is very nice... i will soon be running that exhaust on a da teg and the teg will also be turbo. The way i see it i will just run that exhaust with turbo , but when needed i will just run open down pimp.. maybe just by a e- cut out for the exhuast

 

good point.........
