HKS or GREDDY EVO?

leaning towards the HKS, but the EVO comes with the B-Pipe as well. I have a 2k SE with a Y-pipe and would like to know opinions of each. Sound, Look, Gains, Daily tolerence. Thanks for the insight. Peace_

It's a difficult choice... If you have the extra $$$s then go with Greddy...

what ever you get shall be loud due to your ypipe.
its all the same, just the look you like best... you want to dual tip or single tip look? daily tolerance wise... you should find someone from your area who has the setup you are leaning towards and ride in it if possible... my catback gave me a headace so i got rid of it.. i didnt even have a ypipe either.. but it was a special catback

I just got my car from my local shop with HKS installed. Man, the exhaust sounds great!!!. Not too loud, low bassy, humming tone around low RPM's. The dual tips looks tight, big and round. You definetly feel a gain, like the car leaps faster than before. Sounds even better with FrankenCar Intake installed.

If you want teh best HP gains go with the greddy. The Greddy system sounds great but I think the HKS has a little cleaner look.

The Greddy is a full cat so it's ultimately the better performer of the two and it's reasonably priced considering what an HKS rear section goes for. I had a tough time deciding but ended up choosing the HKS cause I liked the dual tips. I figured if I just got an
aftermarket y-pipe and a custom-b I'd be set.
