Question anybody with HKS Carbon-Ti?

Anyone have this exhaust on their FD? How is the sound? The performance gain? Any Pics or clips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch.

I had it, it sounded great, and looked cool too. Once I took off the silencer it was a tad too loud for my taste (well... more like what I felt were SoCal cop's taste). I eventually switched, but while I had it, I was very pleased.
As far as performance gain I didnt boost much while I had it, so I cant really tell you much.

you want your exhaust running through a tube of CF?


How does everyone feel about the PFS dp, mp, and exhaust?

i don't understand why you guys like the big 'ole single tips... but i don't have to, cause its not my car i do like the carbon wrap look but, what is it about loud that draws you guys to the cat-backs with no muffler boxes? i have a Racing Beat dual tip, i love it. it sounds deep but its almost as quiet as the stocker.

like i said, i like the way the CF looks, but what is it about singles and the noise that draws people to them?

not trying to start sh*t honestly, just curious.
