HKS Titanium Racing Exhaust...
Is anyone using the HKS Titanium Racing Exhaust?
"constructed of 102mm diameter stainless steel piping, a 170mm Titanium muffler assembly and a 115mm tip, is the lightest system and the highest flowing exhaust system HKS has to offer"
I really want to know if its real loud?!?!? as another one of my furture plans....

I'm sure it's going to be loud 'cause it's from the downpipe back and does not have any restrictions. I'm going to cut mine's and put in a resignated pipe. If you are serious about purchasing this exaust, I have 2 available for sale and will beat any price given to you from a store.

I used it and plan on installing it again very soon. I had it in for a couple weeks to "test" it out and not only was I impressed with the throttle response, but I wasn't nearly as put off as I initially thought by the noise. Don't get me wrong it's definitely LOUD, but its not horribly loud and the car sounds really beefed up with it in there. Its still not as loud as my friends Camaro SS w/straight pipes. A couple complaints I have is that it totally smells like **** being behind the car and at WOT the exhaust creates a substantial amount of cabin noise.
I'm currently running a Trust Cat-back w/High Flow Cat and this setup also smells but not as bad as the HKS. I'll be swapping it back in as soon as I get my single installed and an external wastegate to halt the nasty creep that was accompanied with the HKS.
All in All: I'd give this exhaust setup a thumbs up for sure. Throttle response was significantly improved with the car sounding like its not something to be messed with. As long as you understand the exhaust is LOUD, just not unbearable, you'll like it too.
