Looking at grabbing a 130mmx2 HKS exhaust, experiences?

My y-pipe finally rusted to the point where one side fell off awhile ago, and I've been weighing replacing the pipe, or getting a new cat-back (I have some generic bazooka exhaust right now).

I'm talking to a guy that's selling his HKS catback for $175, which is not much more then having a new y-pipe created and have a better chance of linig up correctly.

It's 130mm x 2 tips, and all stainless. What kind of experiences have you guys had with these specific exhausts?

He has a TII as well, but will it still fit? I have the stock N/A exhaust right now and thought the TIIs were the same from the cat back. Thanks guys!

Is this for an NA, your saying its a 113mm pipe that then spits into 2, 113mm pipes and then to the mufflers ?? .

If this is for an NA, its total Overkill. Damn my baby has a 3'' and thats HUGE .

130mm tips, so the ends that belch out the flames and 2 cycle toxic gases and stuff. D

I'm not sure what I have now, but their big and tacky looking, but I think they're bigger then 130mm.

You can see them here:

The biggest thing I hate about my current exhaust it's hung pretty shoddy, and the pipes are not straight in any way and looked funny when they were both on.

if its HKS.. my guess would be the tips are 130mm and the piping is 80mm. $175 is cheap for an HKS catback if its in good condition. I paid $350 for my HKS twin power catback.

Crud, then it won't fit on my N/a. The stock N/a pipes are 2.25", right? I'll ahve to ask him to meassure the pipe and let me know.

Do you have any pcis with that exhaust installed? I'm just curious how it looks on a FC,.

Ok, talked to the gentleman further, and he measured the pipe diameter at 2.5", and mine measured at 2.25", which was done this morning while I was rushing out for work.

All things considered, I think it should fit well, but would like to hear from some of the current owners of this system.
