Default HKS Hi-Power or T1R 70R Sparrow

Which would you suggest?

I was going to get the HKS because it seems to be the best sounding exhaust for the S. But I was thinking if I should just fork over the extra $300 to get a slightly better performer and hopefully it will sound just as good if not better.

Can I get first hand opinions and opinions and advice in general. Which sounds better (none civic'y) and is the T1R worth the extra money basically.

Mostly in for cosmetics and aural pleasure. Don't really like singles. Thanks alot guys.

Got it on my S..and im more than happy..no civicy or integra with a muffler sound ..sounds different..sounds mean with an intake as well !!

i dont know what the T1R is.

but if your looking for performance go with single line
looks and better tone go for daul line.

ill do a video of my exhaust this week, let me know if your interested to know how it sounds.

jsut ordered the t1r...was told it was better after research going to the single for more power and performance on low end torque and mid range power..but its a single with a slanted design...cant wait...get the t1r they are better rated and guarntee performace with a test pipe instead of cat

HKS is one of the best sounding duals for the s2k. I think I like it better than my Fujitsubo.

However, they are made from steel that can, and does, rust out.

Not that it really matters, but I heard T1R is american made? I was under the impression that they were JDM?

I'd go t1r if you're looking for power and I hear it's pretty loud. HKS if you're looking for a nice sound but i heard it doesn't make any power and some cases loses power. I'm trying to get my hands on a t1r.
