HKS R-Spec Exhaust

I literally bought this for just the front pipe. Which makes it the single most expensive front pipe that I'm aware of if you deduct the retail price of the HKS header. I will be selling the HKS header, though, in the very near future.

AVO Overpipe!!
It's thermal coated inside and out. Very cool but also $$$

Got it all installed today! AVO overpipe fit perfectly with a pinkie-size gap between it and the subframe so no rattling at all. As well, the HKS R-Spec front pipe mated with the overpipe and catback with no issues. Exhaust sounds great and I didn't notice any leaks.

Day 2 of the HKS R-Spec/ Cosworth set up. The car is now quieter than it was with the stock front pipe O_o

Still sounds good though. I think I've got a 100% solid exhaust set up for the time being.

Any chance of getting some videos? That front pipe looks lovely, definitely on my list if/when I swap the header.

I did. And was going to wait for it when I saw they were coming out with a catted front pipe. But I just figured it would be nice to keep with the HKS theme.

Fly by might be hard since there are speed bumps in my neighborhood. But if I can find a good location, I'll try.

Had a minor rear end Friday :/
Dropped the car off Monday morning at Progressive. Called and said it won't be done till Tuesday next week.

Nothing too ugly. However, my crash beam was bent and it was near impossible to close the trunk when I opened to investigate the damages. Luckily insurance is covering it. The lady who hit me kept giving BS excuses as to why she didn't want me to use her insurance but finally forked it over.

Damn man so sorry to hear about this! Thank god it wasn't worse. You're a much better man than me. I would've been devastated. Thank goodness your muffler, diffuser, etc wasn't affected.

Lol yeah my exhaust and body kit were the first things I was worried about. I'll admit I was pretty steamed but didn't think it would be wise to start yelling and scolding the lady.
