HKS Exhaust System

From the description of the product, not sure if it's catback but it very may well be. Has anyone tried the HKS exhaust system? Any thoughts such as power gains & sound level? Here's the link: http://www.eautoworks.com/html/home-...=Desc&sort=key

Thanks in advance guys.

I have the HKS on my car and i tell you that it's very nice deep sound, but not ricey and annoying. It does seem to make the engine a bit torquier, but nothing that'll guarantee you a race over dead stock, and my miles per gallon actually went up by maybe 1 mpg (when i'm not flooring it; i tend to a lot to hear the nice sound).
It's not a full catback, it connects after your B pipe. You'd love it.
Here's a picture of it...

The one tip being longer than the other shows HKS' attention to detail. The tips fit the contour of the bumper perfectly. Glad I got the HKS when I got the car. Makes the car sound a bit more aggresive too.
