I need help deciding...HKS hi power or TI-C?

I've finally decided on getting an axle back but can't decide between the HKS hi power or Greddy TI-C. I've checked out videos for sound clips on both and really like the HKS. I like the burnt tip on the Greddy but other than that both mufflers look similar. Does anyone know if the outlet sizes on the HKS and Greddy are the same or different?

Thanks!

i have a hks hi power also, and i sure love it. I cant really say which is better as I never had both, (not being biased) but I'm pretty sure the hks has a deeper tone then the greddy.



I believe the greddy has a outlet tip.

Thanks for the replies! I've found both at pretty good prices, I think I'm leaning toward the ti-c. For those that have it, would you say it's fairly quiet? I don't want it too quiet that you barely know its on there but I definitely don't want it super loud.....

It's loud as shit without the silencer.When I just got my b-pipe,I took the silencer out..holy shit that was loud haha, popping included when you let off the throttle. With the weaponcrap race header i wont even attempt to take it off. I just take it off at autocross.

silencer in + b-pipe= awesome sound (G35 ish)
silencer out + b-pipe= loud + deep, too much for daily driving imo
stock b-pipe + silencer in= a bit deeper than stock
stock b-pipe + silencer out= moderate deep tone


hope that helps

High Five! HKS HI POWER FTW! Its not super loud, and not super quiet that you wont notice it. Its perfect for daily driving!

Its quiet when idling - no droning or such.
Its quiet when cruising and low on pedal.

Its loud at wide open throttle when you really want it to! Even if you make your car loud with b-pipe and such, it still retains the deep mellow tone.

had the evo2 on my eclipse, excellent sounding exhaust.

the HKS hi-power sounds like my evo2 but MUCH quieter.

I love it.
