hks legamax or buschur?

I just bought my evo x gsr 3 weeks ago and i want to do some mods to it like Blow off valve, drop in air filter and replace my exhaust with something that can add more power to my car. i found some choices on ebay which is the hks legamax and the buschur. i wonder which one is better, any advice?

No offense to HKS they make absolutely exceptional products. But buschur is a GOD among EVO's.

HKS and Buschur are both great, but Im pushing to buy American lately

Personally, both are too quiet for me. I like the AMS single side and dual exhausts(loud version) simply because if I buy an exhaust, I want it to sounds agressive.

true its around 6lbs lighter, but seriously the performance and quality of it override that fact, plus unless you are a paid professional or race for competition, the fact that its only 6lbs lighter will not compromise everyday performance

T1R products are well made for what they are, considering they are manufactured and made in Taiwan...

true that, the other reason i am going w/this exhaust is for the titanium tips and it has the perfect sound that i was looking for, louder than the legmax, but not quite as loud as the ETS, but with the same deep aggressive tone

I would look into MXP as well if you like titanium tip exhaust, they are fairly quiet and very high quality.

T1R is a good exhaust! So are the other 2 brands mentioned but the thing I do not like about the HKS is it is to restrictive for the mods I have planned. For someone looking for basic mods (no turbo upgrade) I think the HKS is pretty nice looking!

how was bov responding to freeway drive? i heard that there's a little lag when driving it on freeways. i read the thread somewhere in this site.
but i still want the sound of the bov (pssshhhhht!)
