Installed my HKS Hi-Power 3" cat back + video

I just got this baby in the mail a few days ago and installed it at my dads shop...instalation took no more than 20 mins ( it was up on a rack which made it wayyy easier)

The fit and finish is awsome, it sounds super deep, not crazy loud but definatly not quiet..At idle it has a nice growl to it and when your driving you can still hear the person next to you talking...It sounds pretty much just like the video on the hks site. I could definatly feel a lil more power, first gear feels smoother and WOT you can feel it pulls harder. I thought ide share this since i couldnt really find anyones personal sound clips of this same exhaust...well here it is

heres a quick pic i took it of installed

'05 GG MR for me, same exhaust. Looks like the placement is the same also, but a bit tough to tell. Enjoy it, I like mine just fine. Sounds good also!

I just installed the same exhaust on mine a couple weeks ago. It is quite though... I thought it would be a little louder. I'm happy with it though!

do a 3inch downpipe, and test pipe and you will LOVE the sound of your exhaust..

all of my evo friends have this exhaust n all of them love it.. with there downpipe/test pipe combo.. its sounds so sexy.. with out being extremly loud and ricey
