Question HKS Hi-Power VS Greddy Ti-C

So, i got my tomei expreme exhaust manifold for my sr and now im trying to figure out an exhaust, originally i wanted to get the tanabe concept G turbo back because it seemed top quality, and because it has a 4" tip, however it seems a lot cheaper to just get a greddy downpipe and ti-c exhaust or an hks hi-power and hks downpipe. So ive given in to the bigger exhaust tips =\, so which exhaust do you think is better? Thanks.

I was stuck in the same exact position... Greddy tic or hks hi power.. I went with the hi power the 85mm pipping it's great sounds good to. Also depends on how loud you want it to be. The hks has a nice deep tone and is quiet in most cases compared to the greddy tic which a little louder !

I wanted the HKS HI-power but because of less restriction and it is tucked up higher i chose the buddy club spec II. Noise polution wasn't any concern for me and its quite a bit louder than the HI-power

I appreciate all the feedback, & wtf @ the roadkilling hks exhaust^ lmao. & wow i thought the hks was the loudest, also i think the hks muffler canister is bigger then the Greddy, and the muffler tip. Also For everyone saying which exhaust is more quiet or loud, do u still have a cat on? And ^ ive heard blitz nurr is the best before but i believe that would be like $200 more in the end if i got a blitz nurr catback & downpipe.

If you drag your exhaust too much, it could crack your very nice Tomei manifold. Just something to think about.

yeah one of the hangars that holds up the muffler part broke right off left a hole in the piping. also the can thing in the middle of the car scraped on everything, after hitting a couple street reflectors and taking speedbumps to get to school that shit looks like an accordian lol. shits done for im getting the buddy club spec 2, im more worried about ground clearance than sound at this point

Zilvia doesnt tollerate street drifting. Haha

But I had a hipower on my other kouki, I loved it, amazing quality, perfect fitment and it did sound amazing. But I just like louder stuff.

I had a greddy ti-c on my NA KAE before my car got jacked. Sound was amazing, always got compliments. Nice deep tone not raspy like Honda kids. I spent a good month deciding between the same two exhausts and I ended going with the greddy because I prefered the sound to the hks.

Exhaust?

I have a Apexi GT Spec in 95mm on my S14 and it is the nicest, and cleanest low rumbling but not too loud exhaust out there, bought it for my s13's now also on my s14, a bit expensive but worth the wait. Thats what i would go with

just save and go full titanium. Once you do, you will never want SS exhaust again. Just a titanium tip is stupid. Do you give your girl "just the tip"? No, why? Because its not as fun. It always sounds better(my opinion I guess), and your saving weight (the single best thing for a car in all categories). You should be able to find some decent ones in 1,200 dollar range unless times have changed. Haven't exhaust shopped in years. I was lucky and scored mine for under a grand. I have an apexi N1 also and it's no comparison. Just my 2 cents.

i had a Trust Ti R and the build quality was amazing (though it was loud, don't know if that matters to you or not). It didn't hang as low as my friend HKS Hi Power as well. I'd buy one again if I was in the market for a exhaust.

@Mr.clean Theres no way I'm paying an extra $200 for titanium lol i don't think the weight difference is that much. @Jonathanprem Not thread jackin, i was curious about that too. @tricky_ab i looked into that exhaust, greddy says each Ti-R is custom made to order which explains the amazing build quality however also makes sense why it takes up to 5 weeks to make, and retail +$1500 lol

This is actually what I'm running now. Must be the exhaust of choice once you hit 30. Quiet for a 90mm piped exhaust. My only beef with it is the big ass pre-muffler (whish is technically a whole muffler). My shit is all getting more and more beaten up.

I've had Blitz nur spec, GP Sports, Buddy Club II, generic N1 style Ebay exhaust and Apexi GT Spec. Buddy club gave me a fucking migraine after having it for a almost a year.
