HKS Silent Hi-Power imo. i have a blitz Nur-Spec R and its fairly beefy too.

whatever you do dont just settle for a cannon, so atleast you on the right track there

In all honesty man.. Its not going to make a huge diffrence in any aspect.

Sound will be the biggest diffrence and even that you can control with what pipeing you want to get.

My tip?.. DO NOT BUY X-FORCE!..

And have a look at second hand bits.. They are almost half the price.. and can pick up a brand name product for quite cheap..

Autobarn products are not fantastic. They are a designed as a "one product fits all".. and usually sound like a fat man farting in an epty can of beans.

you can get a cat-back exhaust custom made, mild steel with stainless steel cannon for 700, or less. They would be better quality than Autobarn products, and sound ALOT better, so +1 with what Cris says.

and whatever you do get it done by a certified place. so you can get a sound test at the same time and then they can do the neccesary modifications if its too loud. i just got done today for mine...not sure if itl pass as legal (heres hoping)

I disagree with you there, when I changed out my muffler (still on stock piping for now) I noticed that the car revved a lot easier than it did with the stock setup.

But would you call it a huge diffrence? Its not a completely different car, is it?

I completely agree with you that there will be changes in the way the engine revs.. of course.. or else there wouldnt be a point in change the exhaust system..

But the "noise" factor is alot more noticable than the torque/responce..

And forget about getting much of a power gain with an off the shelf Autobarn product.. thats what I mean..

Even if a second hand brand name product is about $400 odd dollars.. its money well spent.. you dont wanna be one of those tools whos car sounds like its an asthamatic..

      I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.

      I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
