Default HKS.....again !

I know, I know but I have 2 questions

1) Is there any collateral (marketing info, descriptions) for these exhausts as if I get one, Mr Insurance company will want some detail and...

2) What has been the response from Insurance companies ?....what has been the general premium hike if any ?

Ditto for Tesco. They didn't ask for any proof - just took my word for it that there was no performance increase.

Anyone know a source of overview material ?

When I fitted the PRM they wanted supporting information on power gains etc.

Hmmm, proving no perofrmance advantage If necessary, Vauxhall Boy can send you some footage of him struggling to keep up with the other S2000s at a recent meet - but that may have been that other "upgrade", his PRM, which caused that

I seem to remember that VauxhallBoy tells a different story, about how your much vaunted new single pipe with all its supposed gains didn't make one iota of difference and you couldn't gain on him at all

Shipley, your best bet is the HKS website.

What insurance co are you with.

If they continue messing around like this I'd seriously look to moving somewhere else rather than worrying how to keep them happy. Unless they are saving you some serious bucks that is.
