HKS Hi-power CBE with CP-e catted DP *video*
 
hope this is the right board to post this on.

So i finally got around to making a small clip of my exhaust as it stands today.

It's the HKS hi-power exhaust with the catted cp-e downpipe. I love the sound of it and i couldn't be happier. I don't have any videos of me pulling away from the camera but it sounds very close to a Subaru. I just took my brother for a ride and he immediately commented that it sounds like one (not that i was specifically looking for it to sound like a subie).

Its not loud inside the cabin at all. And still pretty quiet on the highway doing 65-70. I would say almost quieter than stock? hard to say since i forget what that sounded like now.

You can also hear the turbo spool down :) which is always a nice touch

the idle sounds awesome too. can definitely tell if you are walking by that it's got exhaust work

Sounds mean!

Is the tailpipe crooked? Looks like its at a little bit of an angle
Sounds Good!

that's the style of the HKS hi-power. it comes out on an angle and matches the curve of the bumper. it can look strange at certain angles though

sounds good man, i love the way the HKS is designed with the tip at an angle, if I were to go back i would have gotten it instead of my cp-e catback.

random question (sorry for the semi-thread jack)...does the current HKS CBE look like this?

it's the 1st picture. although the place where i ordered it from had the second picture listed. i just emailed them and asked which kind.

I love the sound on that. it would probably be my choice for exhaust but i cant do the angle tip for some reason... (OCD is a bitch!)

madvillain 01-24-2010 11:27 PM

yeah the new ones no longer have that muffler at the end, which is good, it's a bit too ricey for my taste

Im the same way. I hate the angle on the muffler tip.

it seems like almost all turboxs stuff is garbage...i was looking into their stuff, but all i keep seeing is negative feedback on their products.

skeeter149 01-25-2010 04:43 PM

i paid about that, i dont think it goes lower. its a very worth it exhaust, both of em

wootms3woot 02-10-2010 08:49 PM

hey, are you satisfied with the HKS? I'm thinking about buying one in the next week or so...no leaks or anything negative about it?
